Vanessa de la Torre, executive editor of the New England News Collaborative, and Sabrina Herrera, CT Public鈥檚 community engagement and social media editor, serve on the board of the award-winning New England chapter of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists. Recently, the chapter was honored as NAHJ鈥檚 2022 National Professional Chapter of the Year at the association鈥檚 convention in Las Vegas.

The national award is given to a local NAHJ chapter that prioritizes education and networking efforts, provides scholarship opportunities, and shows member growth. The 鈥淐hapter Cup,鈥� presented to the New England board, currently resides at 黑料吃瓜网. De la Torre serves as the chapter鈥檚 financial officer and Herrera is director of engagement.

Some of NAHJ New England鈥檚 initiatives this past year include creating a newsletter to inform members of job opportunities and events, capturing feedback through an online survey, and helping kick off a career coaching network.

Additionally, NAHJ New England launched En hora buena, a virtual event series celebrating journalists of color in lunch-hour chats on topics such as podcasting, media entrepreneurship and stepping into leadership. In Spanish, en hora buena has a double meaning: translating to 鈥渢he good hour鈥� while also serving as a congratulatory expression. Guest speakers for this year鈥檚 series include Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Maria Hinojosa, Shereen Marisol Meraji of NPR, Maria Garcia of the 鈥淎nything For Selena鈥� podcast, and Charo Henr铆quez of The New York Times.

The New England News Collaborative is a series sponsor of En hora buena and 黑料吃瓜网 co-sponsored the Hinojosa event.
