Whether your organization is just beginning to work with the media or looking to nurture and advance existing relationships, this webinar will give you the tools you need to communicate with reporters to amplify your messages –thoughtfully and effectively – within your community and beyond. 

Attendees will learn the basics of building a relationship with local reporters, drafting an op-ed or letter-to-the-editor, tips and tricks for interviewing with a reporter, and staying disciplined with your core messaging.
