Alhambra Source

Alhambra Source is the only local news outlet dedicated to covering the predominantly immigrant San Gabriel Valley city of 85,000. The site launched in 2010, building on two years of research by professors and students at USC Annenberg's School for Communication and Journalism investigating how local news can increase civic engagement in Alhambra and other diverse cities. Since then dozens of community members — working with a professional journalist — have reported on Alhambra. The site serves as a forum for local voices, and a platform for the expression and development of writers, videographers, and photographers.
