Arizona Luminaria is thrilled to launch a three-year partnership with ProPublica to strengthen local investigative and accountability reporting for and with our communities.
Arizona Luminaria is one of three partner newsrooms working with ProPublica’s Local Reporting Network starting this election year. We are joining Invisible Institute and the New York Amsterdam News to dedicate a reporter for a three-year term to focus solely on investigative reporting, in collaboration with ProPublica’s editors and specialized teams. This work is being supported by a grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.
“Over the past three years, we have partnered with our communities supporting Arizona Luminaria’s local nonprofit news team dedicated to caring, in-depth reporting,” said Dianna Náñez, co-founder and executive editor. “I remain grateful for your support as we center Arizonans seeking a light for more ethical and equitable local news. I am beyond thrilled about this new long-term investigative reporting partnership with ProPublica that will help us hold the most powerful in Arizona accountable to justice and truth. Please reach out with your ideas and please hold us accountable to the privilege of sharing your stories.”
Arizona is more than a swing state. Our communities are rich with individuals who demand civic accountability and value our state’s sovereign Native Nations and desert and borderlands people and places.
To best support these communities, we are seeking an investigative reporter with at least four years of experience producing original, revelatory accountability journalism. We want to support your talent for, and dedication to, digging for the truth. Our community-focused nonprofit news team will help you grow your skills with the support of experienced investigative editors.
