My Nonprofit Reviews

Nancy Madsen
Review for Institutes For Journalism & Natural Resources, Madison, WI, USA
The Institute for Journalism and Natural Resources helps journalists gain a fuller understanding of environmental issues through trips which immerse them in all sides of a issue and hands-on experience with research, as well as opportunities for mentoring.
As a participant in the Great Lakes Waters 2010 trip around Lake Ontario, I learned the depth of some of the greatest threats to the Great Lakes ecosystem. The leaders of the trip presented us both, or more frequently, all, sides of the issues.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
stronger writing on environmental issues, greater drive to seek out and recognize multiple sides of those issues and a desire to re-focus on quality journalism.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
encourage more regular updates on the programs and the hot environmental topics.
