New Voices Magazine

Published since 1991 by the Jewish Student Press Service - an independent, student-run non-profit founded in 1971 - New Voices is America’s only national, justice-focused magazine written by and for Jewish college students.

The Jewish Student Press Service was established in 1971 to provide quality, student-written articles to the then thriving network of Jewish campus publications across the country. Many of today’s most accomplished Jewish journalists got their start at the Jewish Student Press Service. Current and past editors of the New York Jewish Week, the New Jersey Jewish News, The Forward, Dissent, the Jewish Telegraph Agency, Lilith and Sh’ma are all past contributors to the Jewish Student Press Service.

With New Voices, the Jewish Student Press Service continues its tradition of cultivating the next generation of Jewish journalists, creating a Jewish media that speaks to young Jews and empowers Jewish students to take ownership of their heritage. The magazine is produced by one straight-outta-college staff member in New York and a network of student writers, bloggers, mediamakers and editors from campuses across the country on a shoestring annual budget. Our alumni go on to work for major news media organizations inside and outside the Jewish world, including the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, the Washington Post, and the New York Times. We're so proud to be so many young writers' and reporters' very first platform to raise their voices on the issues they care about.

Through New Voices, we are proud to host annual fellowships and workshops for our community of writers and creators. We've partnered with other media organizations such as Judaism Unbound, Jewish Currents, the Jewish Women's Archive, Lilith Magazine, and more to help our fellows cultivate the skills they'll need to become the mediamakers of our Jewish communal future.
