Webinar: The news about childhood trauma: Findings and implications

Date: March 16, 2016

As part of a Futures Without Violence webinar series about children’s exposure to trauma, BMSG’s Pamela Mejia shares BMSG research on news portrayals of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). The research found that news coverage of ACEs is on the rise but is still minimal compared to other public health issues. Mejia discusses opportunities for increasing the visibility of trauma in the media, showing how it is connected to other issues, and framing it as preventable. View the webinar slides or transcript.
