Come meet us in community in-person and online. Find out how below.
COMMUNITY CONVERSATIONS
We believe it’s essential to engage with the communities we cover. Last year, we began a live community events series to provide in-depth conversations about topics that matter to readers.
These events go beyond conversations and give people of color the opportunity to include themselves in the process of reporting the news—inviting them to be partners in asking questions, addressing public officials, and looking for solutions to the problems they experience.

SAHAN OFFICE HOURS
Have you ever wanted to meet a reporter and share a story idea? Do you have questions about how journalists decide what goes into a news story—and what gets left out? What do you think about the way Minnesota reporters cover policing and public safety?
Sahan Journal wants to hear from you! Come meet us at Sahan Office Hours—regular series of in-person meetups—to talk about how we can cover the stories that matter to you and your community. Every month, you’ll find us at a local place near you (library, recreation center, coffee shop).
Learn more about Sahan Office Hours here.
Check back for updates on upcoming office hours.
