Let’s find ways to inform without hurting, to advocate without re-traumatizing, and to talk to people in pain that may help them heal — versus leaving more agony in our wake.

Join us for this free webinar on May 14 at 1 p.m. ET, brought to you by Investigative Reporters and Editors Inc. and the Society of Professional Journalists.

For more than 100 years, the Society of Professional Journalists has been dedicated to encouraging a climate in which journalism can be practiced more freely and fully, stimulating high standards and ethical behavior in the practice of journalism and perpetuating a free press. Your membership makes our mission, and events like these, possible.

At SPJ:
– We are champions for journalists. We recognize the achievements of journalists and best practices of media organizations through our awards programs.
– We are fighters for the First Amendment. We monitor and fight against efforts to violate the First Amendment and suppress free press.
– We are stewards for ethical journalism. We build public trust in the media and greater accountability in the profession via an ethics response team, ethics hotline, and other programming.
– We are producers of journalism’s future. We proactively design initiatives that amplify new and diverse voices for both SPJ and journalism overall.
