Awards for Best In-Depth Reporting on Religion

Annually the AAR honors the best in-depth reporting on topics related to religion. There are three contests: writing at large news outlets, writing at small news outlets and opinion writing. For each contest, the first-place winner receives $1,000. Deadline for submission is February 28. Contest winners are usually announced in August.
