Teen newspaper VOX looking for new staff
If your teen enjoys writing, photography or graphic design and would like to learn the ropes of publishing a newspaper, check out VOX, a newspaper run by Atlanta teens.
Published since 1993, VOX gives teens the chance to write about issues important to them and to have their writing read by kids all over the metro Atlanta area. The organization is known for nurturing young people as writers and helping them develop as informed young adults.
VOX is now accepting applications for new staff members. Those selected must attend staff training sessions on Oct. 2 and Oct. 9. Staff members also will be expected to report to the VOX offices in downtown Atlanta at least four times each month.
If that regular commitment doesn’t fit for your child, he or she can submit articles to the paper without joining the staff, by following the paper’s writer’s guidelines.
