For decades, VTLA has honored outstanding Virginia journalists who, through their reporting of criminal or civil justice issues, have fostered an increased public awareness and understanding of the fundamental role these systems play in the lives of Virginians. We need your help to identify candidates for this award for work during 2022. Let us know by contacting our Public Affairs chair, Kevin Biniazan. Now, more than ever, it is important to honor, recognize and support local journalists.
