Tiny News Collective supports early-stage community and local news startups from pre-launch and beyond. We support the voices historically excluded from media and media ownership. https://www.tinynewsco.org
🎉 We invite you to take a look at what we and our members have been up to in the last month. This newsletter is a special one: it's the first that features a piece by our new membership director, Elaine Diaz Rodriguez, sharing her insights from 90 days on the job.
