REGION — Through the generosity of our friends at The Sunday Long Read, The Power of Narrative is able to offer free conference attendance to 10 journalists or journalism students through the David Carr Scholarship.
The scholarship aims to provide a professional conference experience for journalists who belong to historically underrepresented groups in journalism.
The scholarship honors the late David Carr, the extraordinary New York Times journalist who taught at Boston University and dedicated himself to mentorship.
Journalists of color, LGBT journalists, and journalists with disabilities are strongly encouraged to apply, as are others who bring diverse backgrounds and experiences to their work.
Please fill out this form to be considered for this scholarship. Information entered here will remain confidential.
Please note that the conference will be entirely in-person this year, so Carr Scholars should live close to Boston or be able to secure transportation and housing for the weekend.
Comments are not available on this story. Read more about why we allow commenting on some stories and not on others.
We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
You can read more here about our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is also found on our FAQs.
