Awards, Fellowships and Workshops

2015 California Health Journalism Fellowship, USC Annenberg School of Journalism

From the website:

Taught by prize-winning journalists, community health leaders, policy analysts and health care experts, the all-expenses-paid 2015 California Health Journalism  Fellowship will focus on two broad themes: how neighborhood life, social inequities, race, education and the environment influence health, and the promise of health reform and health system innovation.  This year, for the first time, we are pleased to be able to provide a $1,000 reporting stipend to participating journalists to help pay some of the costs associated with ambitious reporting projects. The Fellowship will meet March 1-5 in Los Angeles.

Deadline: December 1, 2014

Requirements:  The program is open to all journalists interested in health reporting, not just those on the health beat. We invite participation from print, broadcast and multimedia journalists working for or contributing to mainstream and ethnic media outlets in California. Students are not eligible, and a minimum of three years of professional experience is preferred. Click here for details about how to apply.
