Injustice Watch
Aging in the Shadows
The collaborative series in English and Spanish, produced in partnership with the Chicago Tribune on Illinois’ burgeoning crisis of undocumented seniors, earned this praise from our judges highlighting how journalists earned trust from being fully embedded in the community and got stories from the most vulnerable. The judges said this is “what all journalists in this country should strive for. When people say journalism is dying, this example of journalism is what all should look for to save it and do better.”
