Jared Myers with Heights CDC joins the High Ground team to discuss our new Community Contributor program, which aims to attract and train residents as neighborhood-based freelance reporters.

 

The program launches soon in The Heights, Frayser, Orange Mound and South Memphis. If you're a resident of one of these neighborhoods and would like to apply to the program, email [email protected].

Deadline for applications is September 13 at 11:59 p.m.

A passion for storytelling and your neighborhood is required, previous journalism experience is not.

Listen on The OAM Network, Spotify, Stitcher, iTunes and Google Play. The On The Ground Podcast is powered by The Daily Memphian and produced by Natalie Van Gundy.
