    Join the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press and the National Press Photographers Association for a legal training for journalists covering the 2024 Democratic National Convention events taking place in Chicago.

    Attorneys from RCFP and NPPA will discuss journalists’ newsgathering rights, safely reporting on protests, ways to avoid arrest and what to do if arrested, local bail procedures, potential security restrictions, and more. Journalists will come away with practical tips and resources to support their work around the 2024 elections.

    Visit rcfp.org/2024conventions for more information on how to register, and to access additional resources available to journalists reporting on the national political conventions.
