Show Notes

Caitlin Schmidt is a co-founder of the Tucson Agenda, a Substack newsletter that offers a clear-eyed look at the decisions that affect Tucson and Tucsonans. Caitlin is a 2014 graduate of the University of Arizona School of Journalism. She was an investigative, and then solutions journalism reporter at the Arizona Daily Star for almost 9 years and has won dozens of awards for her reporting.  In 2019, she became well-known for producing a six-story, five-podcast series about efforts to  stop sexual misconduct at universities . She also wrote solutions- based stories about reproductive health education  and  Pima County programs  that help get people out of jail and back on track with their lives. Caitlin recently left the Star to start the Tucson Agenda, and we’re excited to hear more about that today.
