Thank you, April! And thank you Verified News Community for showing up for it. This month was filled with so many community triumphs. Let’s start with the big one.

VNN’s FATE 2023 in-person event was held last week. Trauma Informed Business Development was an instant success.

Our winter cohort of Builders and Backers concluded this month. FATE was part of our program experiments, now we’re on to Stealing Tvlse. More details on that coming in May.

Justice is VNN’s main editorial focus for Q2, and Oklahoma survivors of domestic abuse are further along to getting some after HB 1639 passed the Senate. The long road continues.

VNN Affiliates like Streetlight published plenty of high-quality independent journalism this month, including a story linking lack of foster homes to juvenile crime.

And VNN launched a new series, thanks to our partners at the American Indian Chamber of Commerce of Oklahoma. Native Commerce News will highlight the social impacts, health, and sustainability of the Indian Country economy.

VNN is expanding our coverage and reach nationwide. Want to help? Share our news! Subscribe. And tell people how VNN collaborators are sharing information and perspective you don’t find anywhere else.

More updates on our nationwide initiatives are coming soon!
