Framing Page for NNIP and the Media Session

This is a framing page for a session at the NNIP meeting in Portland.

Charlotte-Anne Lucas offers a unique perspective as an experienced print and online journalist and an NNIP partner, and has agreed to lead this session. Based on your interests as expressed in the survey, this will be a two-part session – first covering strategies on new media and then on traditional media. Charlotte-Anne will introduce each topic and give practical advice of how partners can better use communications to accomplish their goals. For selected topics, NNIP Partners will then share their experiences before inviting participation from all partners.
