New England Ethnic News is a project of the Center on Media & Society at the University of Massachusetts Boston. The website, Ethnic Newz.org, adds:

"We hope to bring together the following siloed elements of our region: voices from different ethnic groups and cultures; the best stories from more than 100 ethnic media of New England; teens and student journalists, teachers and coaches from UMass Boston and the local mainstream media; news consumers of all kinds; research; links to community, business and government resources; and opportunities to connect across our cultures."

The website features a number of Channels that visitors can browse including perspectives from African American, Asian, Haitian, Latino, Native American and Youth voices on issues including: Business, Education, Health, Housing, Immigration, and Politics.

Visit the Sights, Sounds and Places sections featured on the website and you can even Ask the Doctor, "NEWz’s own health reporter, Eduardo Amaral de Oliveira," about the following:

"Do you have questions you’d like to ask a doctor? Want to know about health trends and access to medical care?"

EthnicNewz is also a social network site that allows visitors to Participate online.

"We hope that with new insights and information from NEWz, you will be inspired to take a more active role in your own neighborhoods and communities, in the nation and the 'global village.'"
