About this app
Winner, Regional Edward R. Murrow award from the Radio Television Digital News Association (RTDNA) for this digital news service in 2022.
We focus on public comment, neighborhood news, and emergency preparedness to promote whole community self-governance in the city with one of the highest per-capita homeless populations in the country.
Our approach has been characterized as community journalism, public journalism, civic journalism, citizen journalism, and solutions journalism. We are always looking for neighbors to serve as correspondents and share local news. For 2022-23, we plan to build on the news service to develop a street newspaper. An associated vendor program will provide workforce training and opportunities for neighbors in transitional housing.
This hyperlocal news service is one of four components in the Whole Community Support program. The other three are: the Time Bank; the Exercise and Evaluation program; and the Incident Command System (ICS) For Neighbors.
CPCN created this Eugene community newswire as a collaborative project with KEPW 97.3 FM Eugene’s Peace Works Radio, and local homeless advocates.
Our documentaries seek to share the latest public discourse with depth and context, summarizing a typical hour or 90-minute meeting in eight to ten minutes of audio. Repetition, filler words, non-significant pauses, expletives, and background sounds may be removed, incorrect pronunciations corrected, and sequences changed for that documentary.
We hope you will contribute to Whole Community News and other non-profit news organizations listed here: https://www.publicnewspapers.org/support-local-citizen-journalism.
The CPCN board of directors selects special projects each year at its annual meeting. Past projects included the award-winning Montana weekly newspaper, the Clark Fork Chronicle, serving the frontier communities of western Missoula County and Mineral County, Montana.
