15 West is a resident and volunteer-supported newsroom dedicated to connecting people mile by mile, block by block, throughout neighborhoods west of Chicago.
We want to be one of the first news spaces to intentionally cater to readers of all needs, abilities, and competencies.
We aim to increase understanding of the news and diminish the likelihood that someone is misinformed about the world around them.
We're neurodiverse first, getting news to people of all abilities.
