Job description

JTA Teen Journalism Fellowship

New York area teens: Learn about the New York Jewish Week fellowship here.

The Jewish Telegraphic Agency is pleased to announce the next application round of our journalism fellowship for high school-age Jewish teenagers.

We are accepting applications from young people (15-18 years old) who are interested in reporting the news of their community through a Jewish teen lens. We are defining "community" loosely here – school, neighborhood, identity, culture, hobbies. We want to hear how these parts of your life intersect with your Judaism and age-group.

You provide the story idea and we'll provide the training and support required to help you produce a 750-1000 article.

This is a remote fellowship. Teens are expected to work independently and be on the hunt for the news in their communities and the world around them. Fellows estimate they spend 3-4 hours per week on their article during the course of the fellowship. We expect fellows to produce at least one piece during the course of the fellowship. Teens will be paid for published work.

We encourage teens of all backgrounds, identities, genders, cultures and connections to Judaism to apply.

Eligibility Requirements

  • 15-18 years old
  • Self-identified Jewish
  • Interest in news media (online, audio, video)
  • U.S.-based
  • Journalism experience isn't required

Fellowship Schedule

The fellowship will run September-December 2026. We will hold three virtual meetings – in the beginning, middle and end. All reporting, writing, revising will be done independently during the fellowship. Fellows' deadlines and meetings will be determined on a story-by-story basis.

Before You Apply

This is not an activist or advocacy opportunity. Our newsroom's goal is to report facts without bias and without making assumptions about what our readers believe or experience. Teen writers will be asked to do the same.

Read through these stories the past fellows produced. These will give you a sense of the type of articles we are interested in publishing. Keep this in mind as you fill out the application.

Watch this video about what we are looking for in a good story idea. Your story idea can make or break your application and we want to make sure you understand how to make sure your idea is newsworthy.

Payment

Fellows will be paid a $100 gift card for each story that JTA publishes.

Application

DEADLINE: We are accepting applications through Sun. Sept. 20, 2026.
