The Center works closely with journalists from major newspapers, television and radio on stories pertaining to hunger, poverty and welfare policy. The Center's work is covered extensively in the national media, ranging from major newspapers to networks and programs such as Nightline, Good Morning America, Today Show, Lehrer News Hour, and National Public Radio (PBS).

Center resources for journalists include:

• Authoritative data and recent empirical evidence on hunger, poverty and welfare policy
• Policy background and information on federal and state programs in the above areas
• Expert analysis and story commentary
• Assistance in selecting sites that tell the story
• General background information to help shape stories and refine issues to be covered
• Short-term "visiting fellowships" within the Center for more in-depth research into hunger and poverty
