SUMMARY:4th Annual Native Writer Accelerator Grant
DESCRIPTION:The Native American Media Alliance announced the recipients of the 4th Annual Native American Writers Accelerator Grant. With support from Netflix’s Fund for Creative Equity\, the organization launched the Native American Writer Accelerator Grant for fellows from their highly successful writers programs. \n“The Native American Accelerator Grant continues to be a powerful platform for empowering Native American writers.” Announced Ian Skorodin\, Director of Strategy of the Native American Media Alliance. “We’re honored to support this talented group of individuals who are making a significant impact on their communities and beyond.” \nCreated to give new opportunities to Native American writers\, the Native American Writer Accelerator Grant provides $10\,000 grants and professional support that include live script reads and writer room experience to help recipients develop their craft and bolster their writing careers. In its fourth year\, the Native American Writer Accelerator Grant awards 12 Native American writers from the Native American Media Alliance writers programs. \nThe Native American Writer Accelerator Grant is also designed to encourage Native American writers to expand on their current opportunities. According to the Writers Guild of America’s Inclusion Report\, Native American writers represent only 1% of working television writers. This fund addresses this challenge as past recipients have been able to develop their craft to become staff writers on current series and produce their own creative material.\n\nThe collaboration with Netflix on the Native American Writer Accelerator Grant is part of Netflix’s Fund for Creative Equity\, a dedicated effort to help train creatives for job opportunities on Netflix productions and set talent up for success in entertainment. Since its launch in 2021\, Netflix has partnered with over 80 organizations in more than 35 countries. \nRecipients of the Native American Writer Accelerator Grant: \nKris Crenwelge \nRory Crittenden \nKhadijah Iman \nNoah Keeling \nTony Magaña \nHeidi-Marie Ferren \nRichard Montes \nFaith Philips \nMarcie Price Jackson \nMatthew Rochester \nTamara Stratton \nSteven Tallas \n  \nCheck out our past Grantees: \nInaugural  Native American Writers Accelerator Grant Recipients \n2nd Annual  Native American Writers Accelerator Grant Recipients \n3rd Annual Native American Writers Accelerator Grant Recipients
