City Bureau is excited to launch its new membership program, the Press Club.

Do you think news organizations can do more to serve the people? We believe media is foundational to democracy, and that it must earn the trust of its audience, building long-lasting relationships with the community. The Press Club gives us the resources to grow sustainably, independently and—most importantly—to be accountable to you, our readers, supporters and neighbors.

As a member, you'll get to offer feedback at the earliest stages of our projects, see behind-the-scenes updates on all of our stories and access special workshops. And, with your support, we are able to keep our core programming free and open to the public.
