WFYI Public Media is looking for an experienced journalist to play a vital role in covering how state government, agencies, policymakers, and influencers impact the lives of Indiana’s children and young adults.
The reporter will be based at the Indiana Statehouse and closely follow day-to-day and weekly developments within the legislature when it is in session, particularly in early childhood and K-12 education, and access to college and career readiness. You will be part of an education reporting team focused on systemic inequities in public education and the approaches to addressing them.
The focus on children, K-12, and higher education will provide vast opportunities to make state and national impact through digital and audio reports. You should feel comfortable with data-driven reporting, filing FOIA requests, and shoe-leather reporting to seek out powerful and untold stories. Your expertise and curiosity will be a driving factor in the coverage.
All WFYI journalism initiatives investigate where public policies meant to serve everyone succeed, where they fail, and efforts to fix them. You will collaborate with 35 reporters, editors and engagement specialists.
