Trauma-Informed Journalism

Trauma-Informed Journalism

Echo’s executive director Louise Godbold partners with journalist, author, and trauma researcher Tamara Cherry to bring you a workshop on trauma-informed journalism, suitable for journalists, newsroom managers, and non-profit communications teams. This training provides a solid grounding in working with trauma survivors to tell stories that heal, instead of harm.

Research shows that most trauma survivors are negatively impacted by their interactions (or lack thereof) with the media, but many of those same survivors see value sharing their stories publicly. Is the harm that comes from trauma reporting a necessary evil for positive outcomes? No. Register today to learn how to incorporate trauma-informed principles into your storytelling practice.
