Details:
American adults spend more time at work than anywhere else, and yet surveys reveal significant gaps between what employees say they need for their mental wellbeing and what employers are providing.
Amid broader economic anxiety, generational differences regarding mental health stigma and more employers issuing return-to-the-office edicts, mental health in the workplace is a rich topic for journalists.
To encourage accurate, nuanced and in-depth journalism on mental health issues, treatments and advances at work, the National Press Foundation will hold a two-day training fellowship in Washington, D.C., May 21-22, 2025.
Eligibility Criteria
- This is a competitive program open to U.S. journalists only. They greatly value diversity in all the programs and particularly seek applications from journalists of color, those reporting for marginalized communities and reporters for local and nonprofit news organizations. Journalists in any medium are encouraged to apply.
- Selected journalists will have the opportunity to question expert speakers and instructors in organizational psychology, human resources and more and get the story behind the story hearing from journalists at the Carolyn C. Mattingly Award for Mental Health Reporting winner’s reception. NPF offers this professional development opportunity for journalists to enhance skills, increase knowledge and recharge their reporting.
