CNPI is the nation's only grassroots news bureau where low-income workers and immigrants are trained to be professional radio reporters.
CNPI reporters tell the stories of their communities and issues that are important to their lives. Their work has aired locally, nationally and internationally, and is also used as movement-building tools to advance social change campaigns.
We partner with community based organizing groups to train their members and staff in Radio Journalism 101. Our reporters are street vendors, domestic workers, refugees and construction workers.

About 1.8 million children have a parent in the state or federal prison, 65% of women in the state prison are mothers, and 55% are fathers.
As many as 70% of the children of incarcerated parents will become involved in the criminal justice system, either as a juvenile or as an adult unless effective intervention strategies are set in place. But there is a group just working to break that cycle. CNPI reporter Julia Paul of Families For Freedom sat down with Sharon Content, the founder of Children of Promise, a NYC-based nonprofit committed to embracing and empowering children of incarcerated parents to break the cycle of inter-generational involvement in the criminal system.
