Journalists are likely to face stressors from many directions in 2024: the demands of constant deadlines, industry-wide financial turmoil, and an uncertain election season ahead are among them.
Research shows these stressors affect journalists’ mental health. Depending on their beats or work locations, as many as 59% of journalists experience symptoms of serious stress including the inability to concentrate or to sleep, as well as feeling on edge, numb, or angry, according to the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma.
Join the National Press Club Journalism Institute for a conversation focused on practical tips and effective methods for journalists and newsroom leaders to address stress and burnout.
In this webinar, participants will:
- Learn about mental health toolkits for journalists
- Find a network of like-minded journalists to talk about mental health
- Gain strategies for gaining their leadership’s support for mental health
