This Thursday, February 24th, students are preparing to participate in Student Press Freedom Day 2022, an important day of action aiming to amplify the efforts of student journalists nationwide and increase visibility for the key roles they play in their respective campuses and greater community.

As we reflect on the multitude of challenges that continue to threaten student First Amendment rights, New Voices Texas needs your help.

In conjunction with the Student Press Law Center, we encourage you to join us in celebrating scholastic media this week by taking action below.
