NextImg:In Their Own Words: Chicago Gun Violence Survivors Speak on Inclusive Storytelling

Join the Chicago Sun-Times and The Trace for an evening focused on telling survivors’ stories of gun violence. 

Following our joint publication of Chicago Stories of Survival, a project that trained survivors to tell their stories in their own words, you’ll hear from the participants directly about what it’s like to recover from gun violence. They’ll discuss their writing process, and talk about what they need from lawmakers and the media to better navigate Chicago’s gun violence crisis and continue on a path towards healing. You’ll also hear from local media leaders about their efforts to better include survivors.

Together, we’ll brainstorm ways that local news organizations and everyday Chicagoans can help meet survivors’ needs through more human-focused coverage. 

This event is free and refreshments will be provided.
