Reporting on Addiction

Reporting on Addiction

Most people learn about addiction through the media, but these stories aren’t always telling the whole picture…

To help improve this, we partnered with 100 Days in Appalachia. 100 Days in Appalachia is a non-profit newsroom committed to improving reporting about and in the Appalachian region.

For Reporting on Addiction, we’re using a stakeholder informed approach by working with academic experts, community members with lived experience, and media members to develop guidelines for journalists and journalism students to help improve reporting.
