Our Story

---

This web posting is a focus group tool. We edit often and welcome discussions.

Public Interest News Network (PINN) harnesses the collaborative power of the pen through journalist entrepreneurship and solutions journalism to help achieve diverse societal objectives. We use evidence-based data and visual storytelling to accelerate an original digital media strategy. We currently work to eliminate local news deserts, close the digital divide and advance digital equity. 

PINN mobilizes through the Career and Technical Education (CTE) Arts, Media and Entertainment Industry Skills Framework and the innovation, creativity and self-determination of CTE teachers, students, job-seekers, entrepreneurs and others. ame24industryframework.docx 

PIN also works to align and transform the emerging fields and diverse disciplines of public interest communications, publishing, technology and law into a high-growth, human-centered industry, equipped with diversely-skilled workforces dedicated to serving the public good. PINN is guided by a recognition that diversity is a central community asset, intergenerational collaboration is a vital resource and equity and inclusion are catalysts for change.
