Gun Violence Prevention Reporting National Certification Conference

About this event

The 3-day Gun Violence Prevention Reporting National Certification Conference brings together the best of our previous Better Gun Violence Reporting Summit and our local Certification Workshop. Through a series of interactive workshops and conversations, attendees will learn best practices for reporting on gun violence and prevention based on our first five years. Our work is community-informed, trauma-informed, data-informed, evidence-based, rigorous, authoritative and focused on solutions.
