Survivor Media Training Application 2025 | Solicitud de
capacitación sobre medios para sobrevivientes 2025
When you see coverage of domestic violence in your community, is
it accurate and solutions focused? Does it include the voices of
survivors in a trauma informed manner?
Most often, journalists want to hear from people who have been
directly impacted by violence, but we shouldn’t expect someone
with lived experience to take an interview on the spot without
support and preparation. That’s why we’re offering a training
that centers survivors of sexual and domestic violence who want
to connect their story to create change.
Apply today. We highly encourage the following
Californians to apply: LGBTQ+ people; Black, Indigenous and
Native, and People of Color, people who speak a language other
than English, and rural community members.
Cuando ve la cobertura de violencia doméstica en su comunidad,
¿es precisa y se centra en soluciones? ¿Incluye las voces de los
sobrevivientes de una manera informada sobre el trauma?
La mayoría de las veces, los periodistas quieren escuchar a
personas directamente afectadas por la violencia, pero no debemos
esperar a que alguna persona que vivió una experiencia acepte una
entrevista en el lugar sin apoyo ni preparación. Por eso
ofrecemos capacitación que se centra en los sobrevivientes de
violencia sexual y doméstica que quieren usar su historia para
crear un cambio.
Aplicar hoy. Animamos especialmente a que los siguientes
californianos apliquen: Personas LGBTQ+; personas negras, indios
y nativos, y personas de color, personas que hablan un idioma
aparte del inglés y miembros de comunidades rurales.
Defend survivor services
Update: We successfully secured $100 million for
victim services in California.
Read the full press release.
Survivor services – including shelter, counseling, legal help,
and more – is at risk. We need California to protect them as
threats loom at the federal level.
Last year, California provided $103 million in one-time funding
to backfill the federal shortfall and maintain current levels of
funding for victim services.
In addition, we established the first-ever California Crime
Victims Fund through AB 2432, authored by Asm. Jesse Gabriel and
Asm. Reyes. This will take time to build, since funding will be
generated by holding corporations criminally accountable for
harms committed against Californians. Join us and 200+ other
organizations in requesting $260 million in one-time funding as
the fund builds.
