In January 2024, the New Jersey Council for the Humanities and the Center for Cooperative Media (CCM) at Montclair State University embarked on a collaborative project known as the “South Jersey Community Reporters” initiative.

The South Jersey Community Reporters program aimed to develop a cadre of skilled community reporters across South Jersey, enhancing local news coverage and fostering cross-cultural understanding and resilience against hate.
