Reframing Gun Violence: Wellbeing & Narrative Shift

As common as instances of gun violence in the United States is media coverage of these horrific acts. These stories shape our perception of victims, perpetrators, the causes and the solutions, driving assumptions that can limit access to wellbeing. What new solutions could we unlock by fundamentally shifting the way we talk about violence and other pressing issues of our time?

People with lived expertise will lead a discussion with experts in public safety reporting about shifting power from media and institutions to survivors and impacted communities. We’ll reframe how people understand violence, shift the focus to root causes and explore the potential for healing to meet people’s drive for wellbeing.
