In April 2026, Healthy NewsWorks student reporters led our 2026 Healthy Conversations event at Independence Blue Cross in Center City Philadelphia. About 150 attendees, including students, families, educators, and community partners, came together for an evening of lively table discussions and a Q&A session with student reporters. Guests also received copies of the Spring 2026 issue of By Kids, For Kids magazine and explored student-produced health newspapers.
The table discussions during Healthy Conversations focused on “Making Healthy Connections,” the 2025–26 reporting theme for Healthy NewsWorks classroom programs.
