They are three of 11 journalists in the mid-Atlantic region, defined as Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Delaware, Kentucky and West Virginia.
AHCJ Executive Director Len Bruzzese called the fellowship one of the most important programs the association offers.
“It’s wonderful to see so many reporters and editors – with such a wide range of experience – show their passion for continuing to build their health coverage expertise,” Bruzzese said in a news release. “This is certainly a topic area in which you can never be satisfied with what you already know.”
The year-long program, supported this year by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, will provide established journalists with tools to improve the depth and amount of their local health coverage. Among other things, fellows in the program will attend a health journalism conference and a rural health journalism workshop, have access to an exclusive news webinar and attend several on-site trainings, including a customized briefing at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta.
