Central Current

Mission

We strive to be an inclusive and responsive resource for news and information. Our goal is to foster civic engagement and democratic governance, and to help build a more prosperous and healthy community.

About our journalism

Central Current is a nonprofit, nonpartisan newspaper for people building a life in Central New York.

We launched in 2022 with the goal of equipping Central New Yorkers with better information about our community. We want to help you feel prepared when you enter the voting booth, informed about the projects and investments shaping our region, and connected to the opportunities and challenges we all share as CNY residents.

Our newsroom publishes exclusively community-focused reporting that is independent and ad-free. We pledge never to hide our articles behind a paywall because we believe that everyone deserves access to reliable local reporting.
