Journalists are exposed to trauma in unique, generally unacknowledged ways. If you are a journalist working in the context of trauma, including covering natural disasters – such as the Los Angeles wildfires – violence, or ongoing conflicts, you should join this essential webinar on managing your mental health.
Focusing on the urgent story at hand and ignoring mental health is a strategy that is effective in the short-term, but not sustainable in the long-term.
In this Jan. 28 webinar presented in partnership with NPF and RTDNA, you will learn from trauma expert Gretchen Schmelzer about ways to stay attentive to your mental health during your day-to-day work cycle and especially during a crisis. Gretchen is known for offering research-based, practical, and actionable strategies for leaders who face trauma as a routine part of their jobs. Learn more about her work at the Center for Trauma and Leadership.
