In today’s combative media environment, stories regarding children, youth and families are often dismissed by reporters as merely “human interestâ€Â. As advocates, we know the long term success of these populations is critical to our nation’s future.
Join the communications firm of Slowey/McManus as they discuss tips and strategies to capture the attention of print and electronic journalists. They will also cover pitching stories so they’ll be picked up, best practices for moderating, posting and commenting on blogs, and using personal stories to explain complicated policy issues.
Check back soon for more information!
We will also discuss running an effective communications campaign in the absence of a communications staff position.
