Frank Ochberg, founder of the Dart Center for Journalism & Trauma, says it started with a focus on trauma rather than on issues, such as poverty, prejudice and ignorance. “We wanted to help journalists deal with human events that came up regularly in deadline reporting, and to have a scientific understanding of the vulnerability, resilience, impact, treatment and outcome.” Ochberg, one of the pioneers of trauma science, uses his expertise and enthusiasm to connect people in both the therapeutic and journalistic communities worldwide to enhance media coverage of tragedy and trauma.
