Documented is a non-profit outlet, based in New York City, focused exclusively on the coverage of how public policies impact the lives of city immigrants. Documented Semanal is your Spanish news bulletin sent by WhatsApp.

The outlet follows the regulatory changes, local, labor policies, practices of application of the law and bureaucratic requirements, and the effects of the new federal directives. All conversations are analyzed and that study informs and shapes Documented’s editorial strategy, which means that the user's concerns are the seed of the reports that Documented investigates and publishes, with great impact in the local, state, and federal authorities that work with immigrants.

In addition to publishing content in English and Spanish, Documented has reporters focused on working in Haitian Creole and Chinese. The organization's work has won the following awards: two Lion Publishers awards, two Awards folio awards, a Journalism Awards online award, an Edward R. Murrow award, and an Adline Club award.

It has alliances with media companies such as the New York Times, Latino USA, WnyC, and Univision 41. The site is financed with individual donations and grants, in this way it wants to maintain its ethics standards and focus on the most important issues to readers.
