The Alicia Patterson Foundation (APF) program was established in 1965 in memory of Alicia Patterson, who was the editor and publisher of Newsday for nearly 23 years before her death in 1963.[1][2]

Fellowship

The Foundation provides competitive, one-year grants to working journalists to pursue independent projects of significant interest and to write articles based on their investigations for The APF Reporter, a quarterly magazine published by the Foundation.[3][4]

Winners are chosen by an annual competition. The competition opens in June and all entries must be postmarked by October 1. Applications are accepted from U.S. citizens who are print journalists with at least five years of professional experience.

Each year a panel of judges convenes in the fall to interview and choose APF fellows. The fellowships provide a stipend of $35,000 for each fellow.
