At the core of our journalism is community engagement.
At Sahan Journal, community engagement means working collaboratively with Minnesota’s communities of color to discover, understand, and voice specific community needs and concerns. That mission is reflected in our work—from the journalism we do to the newsroom staff we employ.
Our hope is that Sahan’s journalism will continue to evolve alongside the communities we serve. How? Through a series of new projects, we’re working to deepen relationships with leaders and organizations that have already built trust with communities of color.
We also believe in the power of building reliable, two-way communication channels with our readership and audience to find out what matters to them, and how we can continue to serve their information needs.
There are a few ways you can get involved with the Sahan Community. Check out our growing list of free journalism channels, below.
