New Writers Program Hitting the Web

Women's eNews is out to find the next generation of writers who can thoughtfully cover issues related to the welfare of women and their families as part of its 39,000+ subscriber independent news service.

The initiative - its New Writers Program - hit the web earlier this week, from an inaugural dispatch from Francesca Levy. The piece, "N.Y. Pioneers Tougher Approach to Batterers," explores newer programs in NY aimed at enforcing the sentences of batterers, rather than focusing on rehabilitation. Levy, a Brooklyn-based freelance writer and student at CUNY Graduate School of Journalism, explores this issue in a feature-length piece, available here: http://www.womensenews.org/article.cfm/dyn/aid/3556
