Event Description

Join us for a conversation between Danyell Irby, WYPR’s Executive Director of News and Sarah Y. Kim, Report for America corps member and Anthony Brandon fellow. They will discuss some of Sarah’s stories, how local newsrooms best serve communities, and they’ll take your questions about Sarah’s health and housing beat. The conversation will be broadcast on Zoom and will be shared on WYPR’s Facebook page. Kim’s position is supported in part by the Transamerica Foundation. Healthcare reporting is made possible by support from GBMC.
