PATH-J
Where Young Voices Become Real Stories.
What is
Path-J?
PATH-J (Public Awareness Through Journalism) is a student-led initiative that empowers middle and high school students to explore journalism through real-world learning.
​
Built on four pillars—Learning, Access, Practice, and Civic Engagement—PATH-J teaches students how news is created, how to think critically, and how to tell meaningful stories with integrity.
​
Through workshops, a collaborative newsroom, and curated opportunities, students develop their voice, engage with their communities, and publish work that matters.
