“The Summit was the most useful and fun conference I’ve attended. I came back with a ton of insights and strategies that will inform our projects and the way we structure them…To craft an event that balances deep conversations with practical applications, while providing a fun way to network and build collaborations is very rare. SJN made it look easy.”

-Wilson Liévano, Digital Editor, The GroundTruth Project (2019 attendee)

“I left the summit feeling incredibly inspired and supported by the SJN team and the dozens of new friends I made over the weekend. The summit is something special.”

-Ashley Okwuosa, Founder, Maternal Figures (2019 attendee)

“Thank you and your amazing team for pulling off the best journalism conference ever. That energy of knowing that I’m not alone in my passion for journalism is something I’m going to hold on to until the next summit! “

-Erica Edwards, Program Coordinator, NYC Media (2017 & 2019 attendee)

“The setting, the group and the format all complemented each other in a fabulous way. You will forget that it was ‘just’ 2 days and it felt like a pressure cooker of like a week. It truly was, even for a European envoy, helpful, useful, energizing, inspiring and an absolute pleasure to be a part of.”

-Mick Ter Reehorst, Founder and Editor, Are We Europe? (2019 attendee)

“Last weekend was truly one of the most transformative, educational and inspirational experiences of my professional career. Not exaggerating. My inbox is already full of people to connect with moving forward. “

-Brittany Schock, Engagement and Solutions Editor, Richland Source (2019 attendee)

“Everything about this conference, from the structure, the venue, the food— just *everything* was brilliantly conceived and radically executed. I feel like the luckiest girl alive! No. Joke.”

-Allison Frost, Senior Producer, Oregon Public Broadcasting (2017, 2018, & 2019 attendee)

“You curated a group of incredible journalists (and humans) to attend the summit. I was blown away by everyone’s kindness, intelligence, talent, curiosity and generosity. I felt totally at home with this group…they give me faith in the future of our industry.”

-Anita Li, Former Director of Communities, The Discourse (2018 attendee)

“This conference was the bees knees. Chris was the most stellar facilitator I have ever experienced. Ten out of ten stars. Would recommend!’

-Cassie Haynes, Co-Executive Director, Resolve Philadelphia (2018 attendee)

“There isn’t anything I can think of that SJN could do better. They nailed it and it was one of the best conferences I have been to.”

-Veronica Johnson, Issue Media Group (2018 attendee)

“When we started out doing solutions journalism 5+ years ago, it felt like we were alone in the woods. Now it feels like we’ve found “our people.” The whole gathering was highly productive, engaging and inspiring! Kudos to the whole team for pulling off the best journalism event I’ve ever attended.”

-Todd Reubold, Editor, Ensia (2017 attendee)

“I don’t know that I’ve ever attended another conference from which I’ve come away feeling that I got absolutely everything I had hoped for. You all are awesome, and I can’t wait for Solutions Journalism Summit 2018.”

-Kim Walsh-Childers, Professor, University of Florida (2017, 2018, & 2019 attendee)

“I had a great time at the summit. It was really unlike any other journalism event I’ve ever attended — I had so many amazing conversations with everyone there, and learned a ton that I’ll be able to apply to everything I’m working on at the Institute.”

-Joseph Lichterman, Lenfest Institute, Solutions Set Founder and Editor (2017 attendee)

“I came to Utah exhausted, burnt out, and honestly wondering whether I should put down my pen and find something else to do. I left with at least a dozen new story ideas, contacts, and ENERGY. This was exactly what I needed. Thank you.”

-Debbie Weingarten, Independent Journalist (2018 attendee)

“It’s been a career watershed moment.”

-Ashley Ahearn, Reporter/Producer, Terrestrial podcast at KUOW (2017 attendee)
