Domestic Violence, Media Resources
Together, journalists, advocates, and domestic violence survivors worked to create this comprehensive tool that supports journalists in covering domestic violence with skill and empathy. The playbook includes fundamental principles to keep in mind when reporting on domestic violence and tips for putting them into practice.
The Journalist Playbook was created by Blue Shield of California Foundation in collaboration with the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence.
