Audit your organization’s legal readiness with our Legal Checkup during this Clinic. This personalized session led by volunteer attorneys will assess your organization’s legal health based on a comprehensive checklist. To participate in ProJourn’s Legal Checkup Clinic, newsrooms must be enrolled in ProJourn prior to the Clinic and join the waiting list.
For newsrooms or independent journalists, operating safely and sustainably in business is just as important as identifying and responding to legal challenges in reporting.
ProJourn launched its 1:1 Legal Checkups in November 2024 after several newsroom clients expressed concern over potential legal threats. In addition to the legal areas covered below, ProJourn conducts a brief survey of safety-related needs and refers news organizations and independent journalists out to its partner organizations, including the International Women’s Media Foundation, PEN America, and the Freedom of the Press Foundation.
ProJourn facilitates legal checkups for both news organizations and independent journalists.
