New Haven Independent
The New Haven Independent is created in partnership with the Online Journalism Project, a non-profit initiative aimed at fostering high-quality, independent, and localized news outlets online. Our primary financial backers are showcased in the right-hand column on our homepage and throughout most of our internal pages. This platform generates its revenue through three main channels: foundation grants designated for specific reporting areas like healthcare—similar to the funding model of National Public Radio; ongoing sponsorship grants from various organizations; and reader donations. The content provided on this site is truly “independent.” All financial support received is based on the agreement that contributors will not influence or be held accountable for the articles published here. If you have any questions regarding the financial backing of the site, please don’t hesitate to reach out. The New Haven Independent delivers daily news updates and fosters a rich public dialogue covering various topics, including neighborhood happenings, government activities, politics, criminal justice, education, business, and the arts and culture scene. Additionally, it connects readers to other resources for information on New Haven.
