What people say about the Maynard Institute

Fault Lines training has been invaluable in helping our newsroom have honest conversations on topics that can be fraught if people don’t share a common vernacular.
Joel Christopher, Executive Vice President, Knoxville News Sentinel
Maynard provided me with the tools, the support, and the inspiration to become a better journalist and a more impactful force for change.
Allison Jing Yang, Senior Editor – Partnerships & Initiatives, Initium Media
With Bob Maynard’s pioneering spirit, it’s important to remember history and how far we’ve come. This program helped shape my career as one of the most important experiences of my life.
Kevin Merida, Former Executive Editor, Los Angeles Times and Former Maynard Board Member, Graduate, Maynard Media Academy
The Maynard 200 experience is unlike any other. It’s training tailor-made for editors like me from underrepresented communities, and true fellowship centered around our voices.
