Student Journalists Headline Healthy NewsWorks 2022 Film and Book Fest

Healthy NewsWorks hosted their 2022 Film and Book Fest at the Merion Tribute House in Merion Station, PA. Since 2006, the Healthy NewsWorks program has improved literacy and health knowledge by transforming K-8 students in the Philadelphia area into journalists who work in teams to research, write, and produce articles and digital materials about health issues that matter to them and their communities. The Quest Diagnostics Foundation has provided a grant, as part of the Quest for Health Equity (Q4HE) initiative, to help build the program’s capacity so it can deepen its impact in its existing partner schools and expand to more schools and communities in the Philadelphia area and beyond.
