Seeking Submissions
We’re looking for first-person perspectives from people with disabilities
If you have experience of disability or facing barriers to full participation, we want to hear from you! Manitoba Possible is inviting pitches for "Explore Possible”-- amplifying voices and challenging assumptions, with pieces written by the disability community.
We’re looking for a wide-range of pitches: personal stories, perspectives and reflections, or amplifying key issues and ideas, just to name a few.
What We're Looking For: Never-before-published first-person submission (written or ASL) along with original, copyright-free accompanying photos and/or videos.
Where Your Story Will Be Shared: Successful pitches will be shared right here on the Explore Possible blog. Your piece will also be shared on Manitoba Possible’s social media, and included in our newsletter, "The Possible.”
Compensation: We offer a one-time $200 honorarium per accepted and submitted article.
How to Pitch your Story
Introduce yourself, where you live, and provide an overview of your proposed piece in one or two paragraphs. Include details on potential word count, headline, and accompanying visuals. While we appreciate all pitches, only a limited number can be accepted.
If your pitch is accepted, we'll contact you to discuss deadlines, providing a clear agreement for your reference.
Deadline to submit your pitch has been extended until February 16, 2024.
