Through year-round programming, including an online magazine, weekend and after-school classes and a career fair, ThreeSixty Journalism delivers a unique learning and career training opportunity for Minnesota teens ages 13 to 19, primarily from the Twin Cities.

There are no other youth programs in Minnesota that offer the same level of in-depth and hands-on journalism, media literacy, and civic engagement training that ThreeSixty provides.

At no cost to teens or their families, ThreeSixty serves more than 20 high schools and 400 teens each year, the majority of whom are from communities of color and from low-income households. Students are from high schools like Wellstone, Arlington, Harding, De LaSalle, North, Eden Prairie, Humboldt Junior High School and many others, like Watertown and Northfield.

Participants, their families, and teachers tell us that their involvement with ThreeSixty helped them to write better, think more critically, ask better questions, become more engaged in community issues and perform better in school.
