Sunshine Week is March 14 to 20

Sunshine Week was launched in 2005 by the American Society of News Editors — now the News Leaders Association — and has grown into an enduring initiative to promote open government.

Join the Kansas Press Association in promoting this annual nationwide celebration of access to public information from March 14 to 20 and what it means for you and your community. It’s your right to know.

You can find Sunshine Week information and downloadable material here.

With constant hurdles to open government in state and local government in Kansas, it's vitally important we bring attention to these issues.

Please utilize the free materials on the News Leaders website to promote Sunshine Week in your newspaper.
