Quote from Unnati Akhouri, a 2024 Mass Media Fellow at StateImpact Pennsylvania on a beige background. Text in blue reading "I learned how to identify what medium- web story, radio, podcast episode, or animation- is best for communicating the different types of story. I came with experience in communicating physical sciences but there is a crucial way in which this summer felt different."
