The National Press Foundation and the National Press Club Journalism Institute will jointly award up to $75,000 in grants to journalists who plan to cover environmental justice.
Grants ranging from $10,000 to $25,000 will be awarded to support journalism in any medium that centers environmental justice and environmental racism in the United States. This could include coverage of the disproportionate harms to disadvantaged communities from pollution, the effects of climate change, or other relevant topics.
Applications are open now and will be accepted until October 2, 2022. Work supported by these grants should be published or broadcast in a U.S. news outlet by April 2, 2023.
The Kozik Grants are funded by a 1991 gift from the late Dr. Franklin Kozik in honor of his deceased son Robert.
Returning as grant application judges for the second year are distinguished journalists Antonia Juhasz, Yanick Rice Lamb and Harriet Washington. NPF and NPCJI thank them for their guidance and support for this project
