The Mendocino Voice, founded in 2016, is an online, independent, worker owned, general interest news service with an emphasis on breaking news, government reporting, and community events.

We are transitioning to a worker-reader co-op with funding from Facebook Community Journalism Project/Lenfest Institute.
