To help local journalists and regional news organizations in the greater Philadelphia area improve their coverage of veterans' issues, the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma has organized a two-day workshop: “When Veterans Come Home.”

This workshop, made possible by the Thomas Scattergood Foundation for Behavioral Health, will take place April 1 and 2 at the studios of WHYY in Philadelphia. It will feature a wide range of local and national mental health and policy experts, award-winning journalists and veterans’ advocates, and include background briefings as well as specialized reporting skills training to enhance the practical ability of local journalists to report on veterans knowledgeably, ethically and effectively.

The workshop is open to reporters for print, broadcast and online media; and editors, photographers, producers or bloggers. Staff, contract and freelance journalists are eligible.
