In addition to SPJ DC Pro, the job fair — hosted by Georgetown’s Master of Professional Studies in Journalism program — co-organizers are the Washington, D.C., chapters of the following organizations:

  • The National Association of Hispanic Journalists
  • The National Association of Black Journalists (WABJ)
  • The Asian American Journalists Association
  • The Association of LGBTQ Journalists (NLGJA)

Journalists have been hired as a result of every one of these job fairs, which we’ve co-organized annually since 2014 until the COVID pandemic changed the rules about indoor gatherings. We’re so proud to be a part of this team effort, and we’re excited to bring it back for the first time since the pandemic began.
