High School Journalism Initiative -- Since 2000, the High School Journalism Initiative has sparked and sustained youth journalism across media platforms. Our efforts grow a diverse generation of fledgling, multimedia journalists. Just as important, we help convey to all students a deeper appreciation of the First Amendment, news literacy, reading, and critical thinking skills. Journalism skills are valuable assets to young people, no matter what their career path.
Journalism Education Association -- The Journalism Education Association supports free and responsible journalism by providing resources and educational opportunities, by promoting professionalism, by encouraging and rewarding student excellence and teacher achievement, and by fostering an atmosphere which encompasses diversity yet builds unity.
Columbia Scholastic Press Association -- Founded in 1925, the Association unites student editors and faculty advisers working with them to produce student newspapers, magazines, yearbooks and online media. Students come from public, private and church-related schools and colleges throughout the United States and from overseas schools following an American plan of education. The Association is owned by Columbia University and operated as a program affiliated with its Graduate School of Journalism.
National Scholastic Press Association -- In 1921, NSPA began helping students and teachers improve their publications. Today that goal remains #1. The organization provides critiques and offers awards for high school newspapers, yearbooks, online publications and individuals and has national and regional meetins members may attend.
