New Jersey Urban News is a dynamic, Black-owned digital news platform committed to elevating the voices, stories, and issues that matter most to underserved communities across the Garden State. Founded with a mission to close the information gap and strengthen civic engagement, we serve as a trusted source of hyperlocal journalism for readers who have historically been overlooked by mainstream media.
Our digital-first newsroom delivers original reporting, community features, and investigative content that centers Black and Brown communities, small businesses, and the everyday changemakers driving local progress. We publish several times a week through our website, two weekly email newsletters, a growing suite of podcasts, and a robust presence across social media platforms.
We’ve built a platform that’s not only informative but inclusive,ensuring our readers see themselves, their challenges, and their triumphs reflected in our storytelling. From health disparities and education equity to politics, arts, culture, and economic opportunity, New Jersey Urban News puts community first in everything we do.
Our business model is rooted in sustainability through paid advertising, sponsorships, branded content, and grant-funded civic journalism initiatives. We’ve proudly partnered with leading institutions, community organizations, and national media funders to support impactful journalism that makes a difference.
Over the past three years, we’ve scaled from a solo operation into a full-service media platform with a small but mighty team of editors, reporters, digital strategists, and creative contributors. Our continued growth is powered by our belief that local news should be representative, accessible, and equitable.
Whether you're a reader, partner, advertiser, or funder, we invite you to join us in reimagining the future of local journalism in New Jersey—and beyond.
