The Student Voice
Journalism Fellowship

The Student Voice Journalism Fellowship engages 19 high school students who are passionate about using storytelling as a vehicle for social change. Over the course of a school year, fellows tell the stories of their schools through the lens of the Student Bill of Rights and grow as writers and communicators.

We believe in creating equitable schools.

The Student VoiceJournalism Fellowship

"The Student Voice Journalism Fellowship transformed me from a writer to a journalist, giving me opportunities to network with the best in the industry and supporting my personal passion projects."

"Being in Student Voice’s journalism fellowship gave me the space and time to connect with other students across the country—and being exposed to their perspectives broadened my world view."

"The opportunity to speak to people within the journalism industry was amazing. Getting to see the many forms journalism takes opened my eyes to the opportunities in front of me and only grew my interest in the field!"
