NABJ Offers Grants for Members Experiencing Layoffs

NABJ CARES Hardship Grants for Members

Dear Members:

The NABJ Board is disheartened to hear of the continued layoffs across the industry. The Board has been monitoring these layoffs and is aware that several of our members have been impacted.

Over the years, through our NABJ CARES program and with the help of partners and donors, we have been able to support our members in various ways during such hardships and in times of need. We are grateful to be able to step forward again and continue this program with another round of grants. As always, we stand ready to offer financial support through NABJ CARES, and encourage you to also take advantage of the job opportunities listed on our Career Center: NABJCareers.org.

We also want to take this time to encourage all media owners to be mindful of the value of representation during layoffs. Diversity, equity and inclusion should always be considered and preserved when making major changes to the makeup of a news staff.

If you were laid off within the past six months, please submit your information below, and we will review your grant application as soon as possible.

You must be an NABJ member to apply.

We are here for you!

Sincerely,

Ken Lemon, NABJ President

NOTE: This round of grant applications closes March 15, 2024 at Midnight PT
