Working with the Media: A Guide for Canadian Victim Service Providers

Working with the Media: A Guide for Canadian Victim Service Providers
The Media Guide focuses on a number of important areas:

  • The media's potential impact on victims of crime; including how the media reports crime, issues of concern to victims and how victim service providers may be able to help.
  • Potential negative implications of interacting with the media, as well as highlighting some of the benefits for individual victims and agencies.
  • Your agency and how you can work with the media to raise awareness of your services, general victimization issues and/or the profile of your organization.
