The Workshop trains people working on these problems to tell
their stories to the media, tips sensitive journalists to
the importance of these stories, and tries to create better
relationships between the media and the diverse communities
that make up Chicago. Since starting in 1989, over 800 nonprofit
organizations have received hands-on training and coaching
for their newsworthy efforts. The Workshop publishes Getting
on the Air & into Print, the comprehensive Chicago media
guide, and newsletter, The Active Voice. Another Workshop
publication, Newstips, is now distributed twice monthly to
over 300 reporters, editors, and producers around Chicago.
They hold a monthly third Thursday Brown Bag Noon Media Forum.
