As SEJ prepares for our next Board of Directors election, we invite you to take an active role in shaping the future of environmental reporting. Run for the board or cast your vote! Oct. 26 is the deadline to submit the Intent to Run form and meet eligibility.
See the latest actions taken by SEJ advocating access to environmental information, press freedom and supporting the media's right to know on behalf of the public, including voicing concern over NPS limits on info sharing, urging FCC to protect cellphone privacy and anonymous communications, opposing federal worker nondisclosure agreements, urging congress to reject the Pentagon proposal to exempt unclassified records from FOIA and condemning the arrests and harassment of journalists at Newark's Delaney Hall.
Member-to-member help is an important part of SEJ's mission to improve environmental journalism, and that's what our mentoring program is all about. We pair veteran environmental reporters with newcomers to the beat, university students, or with less experienced reporters who want to improve their skills. Apply to be a mentor or mentee. You must be an SEJ member. Not a member? Join us.
Layoffs, political pressure and a tidal wave of disinformation threaten environmental journalism today — but SEJ is here for the reporters on the front lines. Help us keep fueling the journalism our communities depend on. Support SEJ

"Specificity is central to both my writing and my reporting. Focusing on details somehow lashes me to the story as if it were a mast. I find that as long as I stay focused on detail, detail, detail while I am reporting, I advance the story." —Alma Guillermoprieto

SEJ's mission is to strengthen coverage of environment, energy, health and climate news, by supporting the journalists who report that news. The benefits of joining include: access to grants for environmental reporting; mentoring by experienced journalists; and members-only e-mailing lists for sharing professional tips, news, and information. SEJ members meet and learn face-to-face from fellow members, other media professionals and topic experts, at our annual conference 
and volunteer-organized regional gatherings.
