2019 National Fellowship Community Engagement Grant Application |
The USC Annenberg Center for Health Journalism is offering up to five special community engagement grants to 2019 California Fellows. Each grantee will receive $1,000 to $2,000 to support their community engagement efforts, as well as mentoring on engagement strategies over six months. Interested reporters can learn more about the grant program by reading this blog post.
We have piloted these efforts with reporters from all over the country with exciting results. Past projects include: using local news call-outs and designing powerful conversations to help a rural community tackle suicide; a collaborative effort between newsrooms and nonprofits in Arizona to prevent infant deaths and injuries in poorly installed car seats; a series of listening strategies to engage teens in a series on sex education; a youth-led community forum and video about the impact of violence on one Baltimore neighborhood; and a crowdsourcing campaign to incorporate community perspectives about a physician shortage.
