Journalism Institute

As the National Press Club Journalism Institute’s inaugural Public Health Reporting Fellowship comes to a close, the five journalists who participated will share details from their ambitious reporting projects, including lessons learned, key findings, and their tips for practicing this type of journalism.

The cohort will have completed investigations into the growing disparities and solutions in disease prevention and health care for immigrant workers, rural populations, and elder communities, among other topics. This will be a celebration of their hard work and dedication over the past six months! Join us on July 25; registration is open.

This program is part of the Institute’s inaugural Public Health Reporting Fellowship, funded by the Common Health Coalition. It’s being opened to the public at no cost.
