Civic News Company

Chalkbeat, Votebeat, and Healthbeat help people strengthen their communities with journalism that is rooted in local needs and subject matter expertise. Our reporting covers the critical, day-to-day work and life experiences of the people who fight to improve education, voting, and public health outcomes and the people affected by that work.

And while local journalism seems to be collapsing and national media focuses less on people and more on polarization, the powerful, and profit, our journalists work to serve communities. We measure our success not by dollars or clicks, but by the civic debates we inform and the civic actions we inspire.

Civic News Company is a part of and working to fuel a civic revival in local communities across America.
