Announcement Post: All-Expenses-Paid Health Journalism Fellowships With Reporting Stipend

I have no connection with this, so cannot vouch one way or the other. However, USC's Annenberg School is certainly well-regarded.

The California Endowment Health Journalism Fellowships

USC’s Annenberg School for Communication is calling for applications for its national health journalism seminars. Based in Los Angeles, *The California Endowment Health Journalism Fellowships* are open to professional print, broadcast and multimedia journalists from around the country who have a passion for health news.

The United States is rapidly becoming more diverse – today one-third of the nation’s 300 million residents are ethnic minorities. This program explores the intersection between community health, health policy and the nation’s growing diversity.

Participates receive free tuition, meals, travel to seminar locations and lodging for fellows. The program offers *a $2,000 reporting stipend* upon completion of major fellowship projects and it flies out editors for a special editor-fellow workshop. To encourage collaboration, the Annenberg School will award *$4000* in *reporting stipends* to teams of journalists from mainstream and ethnic media whose project would be expected to appear in both media outlets.
