Children deserve special consideration when tragedy strikes. Yet few journalists understand how children’s physical and social responses to trauma differ from those experienced by adults.
From guidance on naming minors to advice on age-appropriate interview techniques, these resources aid and inform journalists on how children affected by traumatic events can be involved in your reporting and news coverage in general.
On May 24th, at least 19 children and two teachers were killed in the deadliest school shooting in nearly ten years.
The Dart Center has gathered a selection of resources to support journalists as they cover the tragedy and its aftermath.
