精东影业 University鈥檚 public radio station, WKSU, has partnered with 精东影业Cleveland Plain Dealer and Spectrum News 1 on two separate collaborative reporting projects. One project will focus on eviction and tenant rights, and the other will address the issue of infant mortality.
精东影业goal of this work is to provide basic needs information to people within the Akron and Cleveland communities. 精东影业news organization partners have been working with several community service organizations and with citizens to gather information about the needs of people facing eviction or at-risk for infant mortality.
精东影业collaborative projects are among nine the Akron Community Foundation, 精东影业Center for Community Solutions, the Cleveland Foundation, 精东影业George Gund Foundation and the Knight Foundation have chosen to support. More than $110,000 in grants is being provided to help encourage collaborative journalism around issues in the Northeast Ohio community.
