The desk, which was fully staffed and launched in 2022, is led by Senior Editor Sabrina Vourvoulias with a team of four reporters and a coverage editor. Their initial work included listening sessions with local community groups around Philly. The Communities & Engagement Desk also created the Soapbox salons — 35 community members and leaders who meet regularly and participate in a group texting pilot, serving as a think tank, temperature check, and advisory council. </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-9bd7b49 elementor-widget elementor-widget-menu-anchor" data-id="9bd7b49" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="menu-anchor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <div id="work-at-inq" class="elementor-menu-anchor"></div> </div> </div> <div data-particle_enable="false" data-particle-mobile-disabled="false" class="elementor-element elementor-element-9970292 e-con-full e-flex e-con" data-id="9970292" data-element_type="container" data-settings="{"content_width":"full","background_background":"classic"}"> <div data-particle_enable="false" data-particle-mobile-disabled="false" class="elementor-element elementor-element-04c042c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con" data-id="04c042c" data-element_type="container" data-settings="{"content_width":"boxed"}"> <div class="e-con-inner"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-407e9a7 inquirer-about container-md mx-auto elementor-widget-tablet__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading" data-id="407e9a7" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="heading.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <h3 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default">Working at The Inquirer</h3> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-9cb407a elementor-widget-tablet__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="9cb407a" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p>Critical to our work is creating a diverse workforce with a culture that collaborative, creative, inclusive, and actively anti-racist.
