The Heart of the Hometown Paper
There’s nothing quite like unfolding a local newspaper — ink on your fingers, names you know in the headlines, stories that truly belong to you.
This group is for anyone who believes in the power of local journalism to connect neighbors, strengthen communities, and build trust one edition at a time. Whether you’re a publisher, reporter, designer, or reader who loves the feel of real news in your hands, you’ll find ideas, inspiration, and camaraderie here.
Join us to:
• Share ways to keep community journalism thriving in a digital world
• Learn how to connect deeply with readers and local businesses
• Celebrate the stories that make small towns big at heart
Because local newspapers aren’t just about ink and paper — they’re about people.
