Reverb

Reverb is an initiative and a reporting team from MPR News focused on serving younger (and young-at-heart) Minnesotans.

We know Minnesota is changing and younger adults want news in new ways. So we’re delivering news content that centers their perspectives, answers their questions, celebrates them and explores how they’re impacted by issues in a changing world, and all accessible where they are — on mobile, online and on social media. 

Follow along here and by following @mprnews and #ReverbMPR on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube.
