ABOUT CITY BUREAU
City Bureau is an award-winning civic journalism lab based in the Woodlawn neighborhood of Chicago. Our work has been published in local and national outlets including the New York Times, The Atlantic, Marshall Project, Chicago Magazine, Chicago Reader, WBEZ and many more.
Described alternately as “a J-school of the streets,” “the future of local news,” and “a beautiful brain meld,” City Bureau works at the intersection of journalism and civic engagement. As we widen pathways into the journalism eld and build the city’s most diverse newsroom, we also work to ensure everyone—not just the privileged few—is equipped with the tools and resources to create change in their communities.
