Reporting the Rainbow
Covering and Serving the Queer Community
Friday, Jan. 23, 1 to 2 p.m. ET
This workshop offers an exploration of how to turn LGBTQ+ data into reporting that is accurate, thoughtful and community-informed. Building on December’s training about finding data on LGBTQ+ communities, this session focuses on the next essential step using that information with care, nuance and cultural humility.
(Enroll by Friday, Jan. 23, 10 a.m ET)

What journalists are saying about Sunlight Research Center
The training prompted me to set up a way to monitor changes to a few different Wisconsin Department of Health Services pages. It's already saved me time and mental energy worrying that I missed important developments.
Wisconsin Watch
The training was awesome, and I’m so glad you all offered it. It’s not the kind of training we have the expertise or bandwidth to provide. It was detailed and provided action-oriented stuff we could put to work immediately.

I consider this first big project for Moodfuel a smashing success in part due to the insights I gained through the Sunlight trainings.
