Heading 4
As Schreiber Media Centre enters it’s last quarter of what has been a rather interesting period to say the least, it seems like a good time to reflect on what exactly we have achieved. From the beginning, it was clear there just wasn’t enough happening in the small community of Schreiber to justify the hiring of a full time journalist. However it seemed important enough to establish some kind of media presence in the town. The idea of having a person dedicated to covering the events and stories of Schreiber would ultimately be worthwhile.

Since 2020 when FOCUS MEDIA ARTS CENTRE joined the Local Journalism Initiative (LJI) funded by Canadian Heritage, and when I was hired for the position of community media journalist for Regent Park, the funded content has played a pivotal role in shaping and amplifying the narrative of a community undergoing significant transformation.
