Spotlight Delaware’s Post

We are pleased to announce Patricia V. Rivera, founder and CEO of Hook PR & Marketing , as the new chair of the Local Journalism Initiative board of directors. Patricia, a Lewes resident and longtime leader in Delaware’s Latino communities, will lead LJI’s board as the organization strives to increase its service to Spanish speakers. LJI’s Delaware Journalism Collaborative recently published the first bilingual Voters Guide: https://bit.ly/3z5itWx. Meanwhile, Spotlight Delaware – LJI’s community-powered, collaborative, nonprofit newsroom – will begin providing bilingual local news and information by the end of this year. A founding member of the LJI board, Patricia rejoined earlier this year following a two-year hiatus. “Stepping into this role feels like a natural progression in my journey with LJI,” Rivera said. “The goal is for our bilingual content to reflect and elevate the voices and experiences of Delaware’s Latino communities. I’m eager to guide LJI into this next chapter of growth and innovation.” Patricia succeeds Amy Cherry, who led LJI’s board with distinction for the past two years. Under Amy’s leadership, LJI made significant strides in fulfilling its mission. Learn more about Patricia and this exciting new initiative: https://bit.ly/3Xpm9dH #NetDE #SpotlightDE #DelawareNews
