The Institute for Independent Journalists’ Feb. 10 free webinar will address how to bring trauma-informed approaches into your journalism work and the impact of trauma and triggers on the brain. Please join us at 12 pm ET on Friday, Feb. 10 to hear advice from experts in both the survivor advocacy and trauma-informed journalism field. Whether you’re a journalist reporting on trauma and violence or focused on an entirely different beat, trauma-informed reporting, and interviewing techniques are vital. With nearly every person expected to experience some type of trauma at least once, journalists continually interact with survivors and can play a crucial role in how they move forward after sharing their stories.
