On the Ground

A local elections republication portal and newsletter from the Institute for Nonprofit News

The INN Network produces hundreds of stories covering developments in local elections and politics in their communities. Most of the nonprofit newsrooms that produce these stories allow their work to be freely republished as part of their mission to provide high-quality journalism to as many people as possible. 

To help elevate the visibility of small newsrooms and elections coverage during 2024 elections and beyond, INN has developed On the Ground. This INN-produced newsletter and online portal will offer a curated weekly digest that showcases local elections stories from INN members and packages stories so they can be easily republished by national or regional news outlets. Through On the Ground, these outlets gain high-quality, local content that serves their audiences. This leads to broader reach and greater visibility for INN member news organizations — and increases the potential for real-world impact. 

On the Ground is an opt-in service from INN.
