NBC is proud of the existing diversity of the writers who pen its Primetime Series. In order to further encourage diversity among our writers, NBC provides funding for a minority staff writer position for all scripted NBC Primetime Series. These positions are filled with writers selected and hired by the showrunner/producers of each show, with the guidance of the network and studio(s). Scripts are accepted year-round for screening, however, positions are generally filled during the March - June staffing season.

If you would like to be considered and have material for submission, please follow the steps listed below.

1. Send an email with your name and address to diversityinitiative@nbcuni.com. Please indicate in the email that you would like a copy of NBC's submission release form for the Diversity Initiative. You should receive a submission release form from the NBC law department within a few weeks.
2. Complete, sign, and return the submission release form to the NBC law department at the address provided to you.
3. Once the release has been approved by the NBC law department, you will be contacted and informed of the proper procedure for submitting your material. If you have an agent and/or manager, your material MUST be submitted through them.
4. Once received, your material will be evaluated and you will be notified of any potential opportunities. We will be in touch with you.

IMPORTANT:
Please be aware that there are a limited number of positions available. However, if you are not hired by a show for the current season, or if these positions are filled prior to your material being reviewed, your information will be kept on file for up to six months for consideration in filling positions that may become available during that time. After six months have passed from the time you submitted your material, you may follow the steps above if you'd like to be considered again.
