Did you know less than 1% of professional reporters in the U.S. are Indigenous?

At ICT, we’re working to grow that number. Through our national internship program, we mentor and coach the next generation of Indigenous journalists while launching new reporting bureaus across the country.

JoVonne Wagner (Blackfeet Nation), pictured, is a recent graduate of our internship program and exemplifies its impact. Starting as an ICT intern, she gained invaluable experience covering Montana’s Indigenous caucus. Today, she’s a full-time reporter at Montana Free Press, continuing to tell important stories.
