We are officially launching Civic News Company, the parent organization for Chalkbeat, Votebeat, and possibly future beats to come.
Chalkbeat’s coverage of America’s hard-hit education landscape is more important than ever. We are committed to giving communities the information they need to navigate this turbulent time.
On August 17, Chalkbeat is opening a new bureau in Philadelphia, thanks to a partnership with the Philadelphia Public School Notebook.
As we recreate local news, we must dismantle the journalistic practices and traditions that uphold white supremacy.
The coronavirus pandemic has made it clear that traditional funding models for media are broken.
Our plan: By 2025, we will grow from seven bureaus to 18, accelerating the pace of our expansion to three new bureaus a year.
