Canopy Atlanta partners with Atlantans to choose, report, and present journalism responding to community needs, helping residents tell stories about the issues that matter most to them.
Canopy Atlanta is paying and training South DeKalb community members—our Fellows—to learn journalism skills over a six-week program. They will work with other journalists to report and write the stories in this issue. Those Fellows will use their new skills to continue working on behalf of their communities.
To choose the stories in this issue, Canopy connected with South DeKalb community members and convened a South DeKalb Community Editorial Board to help guide story angles.
Canopy Atlanta is transforming how Atlanta’s journalism is produced by partnering with residents to provide information and tell stories about their community. Join us in making sure every Atlantan can access the information they need by supporting our work today.
Our South DeKalb Fellows will be announced soon!
Workshop Facilitators and Mentors: TBD
Our South DeKalb Community Editorial Board, who applied for the roles in the summer of 2022, will help us refine the story angles in the issue based on feedback collected from South DeKalb community members.
Experienced local journalists, photographers, and illustrators will contribute to our South DeKalb Issue, working on stories based on the community’s feedback or in collaboration with South DeKalb Fellows.
Help us bring community-powered journalism to more neighborhoods across metro Atlanta. Support our work today.
