Michigan Public Grants

In a world where media outlets constantly shift and adapt to new technologies and shrinking budgets, public radio remains a steadfast presence.

Michigan Public has received a two year grant extension from the Public Welfare Foundation to continue the station’s criminal justice reporting. This will allow the station to continue its work reporting on youth and adult criminal justice issues in Michigan.

On a breezy August afternoon, Michigan Public hosted a vibrant group of Detroit residents and activists. We gathered at Mama Akua’s Community House for a discussion focused on addressing policing in their community.

In a significant stride toward bolstering environmental journalism, Michigan Public is amplifying its coverage of the Great Lakes and drinking water issues, thanks to a generous $200,000 grant from the C.S. Mott Foundation.
