MEMBERSHIP >> Want to Join Children's PressLine?
Our next training will be on Saturday, June 14, 2007. Click here to register.
If you're between the ages of 8 and 18 and want your opinion to be heard, you can be a reporter or editor for Children's PressLine!
We're free and open to all children who live in the New York City area. We hold new member trainings three times each year. Once you attend a training, you can sign up for stories and get involved!
As a member of Children's PressLine, you get the power to tell the world what you think. When kids are portrayed in the media, it is often in a negative light. Although 25% of the country is made up of people under 18, only 10% of news stories focus on children's issues - and almost half of those portray kids as criminals.¹
One hundred percent of CPL's stories present the youth perspective to tens of thousands of readers. CPL journalists ask kids and adults the hard questions and then publish their stories in the adult media, compelling decision-makers, educators and ordinary citizens to listen. Over 60,000 adults read our articles. If you have something to say to adults, to policy makers, to people who are making decisions that affect you, sign up to make sure your voice is not left out.
