OUR REACH

Since 2021, Press Pass NYC has helped launch or revive student-led news publications at 30 New York City public schools, staffed by hundreds of students in total and serving more than 25,000 teens. Thanks to these publications, over 1000 stories have been published for students, by students that would otherwise never have been reported or told.

In line with our mission, we’re helping the schools that need us most. Of our partner schools, 70% serve more economically disadvantaged students than the citywide average.

We are working with 14 more public schools in the 2025-26 school year through our Journalism Adviser Fellowship Program.
