NNB partners with local media outlets and community organizations for projects. We are now looking for institutional partners. If you would like to support NNB’s mission and work, please contact us.

NNB is a newsroom, an educational center, a resource for the community, a partner to community organizations, a repository of local black history, and much more. Find out more about who we are and what we do here.

Midtown Resources showcases organizations, community centers, information and people who provide help and services to the local communities in a variety of issues. NNB is compiling all information about service providers in 2017 and will keep adding to this resource page. If you know of an organization that provides service to the community in any way, please contact us.

The NNB Special Projects are created with the help of the Midtown communities and of local organizations and media partners. Usually, the projects are built during a regular class semester and maintained by the NNB staff thereafter.

The latest stories produced by NNB student-reporters. NNB works with local media partners, such as The Weekly Challenger, WUSF Public Media, Creative Loafing and the Tampa Bay Times to publish the stories. Here you will find summaries and links to the original stories.

Midtown K-12 News is a USFSP Neighborhood News Bureau program to improve media and journalism education in South St. Petersburg. USFSP NNB students work with local teachers and programs to develop curriculum, enhance student learning, provide hands-on training, develop experiential learning and field trip opportunities and much more.

NNB students work as interns or volunteers with one or more programs providing assistance to the teachers and media managers. Our NNB students work in the classrooms and newsrooms on a weekly basis and report back to our K-12 liaison and to the NNB faculty supervisor.

Starting in the spring of 2017, USFSP faculty and students engaged in community journalism research will be sharing their publications on this page. We are also compiling hundreds of resources to help journalists and community members to report on their own communities. Below, you can find a list of resources by topic. If you would like to recommend any particular resource, please contact nnb@usfsp.edu.
