We Are SPJ
The Society of Professional Journalists is the nation's
most broad-based journalism organization, dedicated to encouraging the free practice of journalism
and stimulating high standards of ethical behavior. Founded in 1909 as Sigma Delta Chi,
SPJ promotes the free flow of information vital to a well-informed citizenry through the daily
work of its roughly 6,000 members; works to inspire and educate current and future journalists
through professional development; and protects First Amendment guarantees of freedom of speech
and press through its advocacy efforts.
