About Inside Investigator

Welcome: A letter from our team

Dear Reader,

Welcome to InsideInvestigator.org! We’re a newsroom created to inform the people of Connecticut through investigative journalism. We’re glad you’re here.

On our website, you will see stories that share how corruption has negatively impacted people in Connecticut, and stories of those who have triumphed over obstacles to their happiness.

We believe investigative journalism is vital, so we’ve put together a team eager to find and report unique and interesting stories. We believe this work is an exciting opportunity to improve this state for everyone.

Inside Investigator is an independently managed project of the Yankee Institute. That means Inside Investigator has management separate from Yankee Institute. Inside Investigator management oversees daily operations and determines content, completely independent of Yankee Institute.

At Inside Investigator, we aren’t here to persuade you. We are here to inform and engage. To do something interesting that matters. We want you to enjoy our written work, visual work, audio productions, and new projects, and to be a part of our newsroom. We explore investigative angles and stories that aren’t being covered elsewhere.

That’s where you come in. We want you to send us news tips, fun ideas, and thoughts on how we can be better, even if they’re tough for us to hear. We want you to share our stories far and wide, and give us your input on whether we’re doing a good job. Like you, we’re humans.

Our team is made up of people who think deeply and strive to take visionary action. Each person on the Inside Investigator team was hired because they bring something special and important to the table.

As we continue to fundraise as a nonprofit and grow as an organization, we plan to bring on more reporters and staff, expand our creative storytelling capabilities, and empower our friends, neighbors, and everyone in Connecticut to lead better lives. We envision a Connecticut in which corruption is rooted out.

We hope that our work tugs at your heartstrings, inspires you to action, and puts a smile on your face. We hope it results in positive change, and contributes to you, personally, believing that a better Connecticut is possible.

Thank you to those who subscribe to our emails and donate to support our mission. Our work is made possible by your generosity.

We’re excited to be here, and we’re just getting started.

Sincerely,

The Inside Investigator Team
