Award-winning nonprofit newsroom founded in 2016 — the most trusted independent source for journalism about the human cost of military service. MacArthur Foundation and Knight Foundation backed. Investigative reporting that has changed military law, sparked federal action, and given veterans a platform their stories would otherwise never reach. Two programs: the Newsroom (in-depth investigative journalism on veterans and military affairs) and the Writing Seminar (an all-expenses-paid weeklong professional development workshop pairing veterans and military family members with world-class journalists, agents, and publishers). Seminar alumni include Brigadier Generals and first-time writers alike. Songs of more than 15 million streams. Forbes Elevate Prize winner.
