The awards program honors those professionals in print, television, radio and public relations that have honed their journalistic skills into riveting, interesting and compelling stories. Representatives from every major media outlet and discipline in Atlanta attend the event, which awards $10,000 in scholarships to deserving journalism students. Proceeds benefit the Xernona Clayton Scholarship Fund.

Planning is underway for our 2009 event. We are currently accepting bids for proposal. Interested parties should contact an AABJ board member. Deadline to submit proposals is Wednesday, Oct. 1.
