Thanks to a generous grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Follow South Jersey is able to generate stories by employing student journalists to write and create a significant portion of the site's content. The student journalists are selected from schools in our area and contribute content by working as paid interns for the site, receiving valuable feedback and work experience along the way.
