Reimagine: Santa Barbara
We’ve partnered with KEYT News and Shared Mission Santa Barbara to create an extensive, multipart series examining the history and evolution of downtown Santa Barbara and explaining many of the contemporary issues, both good and bad.
El Niño
El Niño weather events are caused when warmer ocean temperatures in the equatorial Pacific Ocean are pushed by surface winds, moving the water eastward.
Emergency Preparedness
Noozhawk’s Prescription for Abuse series is a special project exploring the misuse and abuse of prescription medications in Santa Barbara County.
Our series is a result of an exciting and unique partnership with USC’s Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism, which awarded Noozhawk a California Endowment Health Journalism Fellowship to undertake this important work.

Santa Barbara Challenge
The Santa Barbara Challenge is a joint partnership with the Davenport Institute for Public Engagement and Civic Leadership at Pepperdine University’s School of Public Policy in Malibu. It’s a unique venture for the institute, for Noozhawk, and for New Media in general.
Noozhawk’s reporters outlined Santa Barbara’s financial circumstances and budget process to provide context for the Santa Barbara Challenge. Afterward, with UserVoice.com, another Davenport Institute affiliate, we’ll launched an interactive and easy-to-use online survey through which Noozhawk readers can recommend ways the city can fix its budget or spend our money more wisely.
