What do stories about substance use and addiction look like when we focus on underrepresented communities — those often left in the margins? We spent the semester reporting on challenges and solutions that communities underrepresented by the media face. https://t.co/ngT75xuJRx

Rodolfo Lopez's journey to and through substance use recovery.

The group offers addiction recovery support that is culturally sensitive to the needs of the Latinx community to foster an environment in which Latinxs feel heard and free to express themselves without judgment from others. https://t.co/NGHCYq1KjN

So proud of yet another super talented group of @TUKleincollege students who produced this beautifully reported project for @sojoaddiction. Highlights include treatment options for undocumented migrants and a 12-step group for Muslims. https://t.co/81r9dlpQiC

So excited to announce that my @sojoaddiction class' 1217 project won first place for Online In-Depth Reporting in the @spj_tweets Region 1 Mark of Excellence Awards. Two (former) student journalists also placed as finalists in the podcasting and video categories! 🏆✨

The @sojoaddiction class is digging around this week for more story ideas & sources for its next project, but we need your help. Stay tuned for questions, which we'll post as they arise, in the thread below...

🏆Award alert🏆 So proud to see @TheTempleNews win 9 Keystone Awards and @sojoaddiction win 5, including first place for ongoing news coverage and public service/enterprise reporting. I guess the student journos at @TUKleincollege do a good job ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Covering Addiction @sojoaddiction]

@DrDavidClements Just emailed you... looking forward to connecting. Thanks!

[Covering Addiction @sojoaddiction]

It's that time again! We're gearing up to focus for four months on developing a multimedia package on addiction and addiction solutions in the Philly area, but we need your help. Here's what we want to know...

[Covering Addiction @sojoaddiction]

@mctina2015 @thesmallpicture Yes! This is great feedback. What would you like to see instead?

[Covering Addiction @sojoaddiction]

We love examples, too, so please feel free to send us links to stories you either hated or loved, that succeeded or failed...

[Covering Addiction @sojoaddiction]

What addiction-related stories would you like to see more of in the news? Less? On what are news organizations focusing too much? Too little? What stories did you love recently? Hate? What else should we know?
