Learn more about the TJA's changing social media strategy.
Hi all!
As Twitter has become an increasingly unrewarding platform, we've been exploring other ways to reach our members and the journalism industry at large. That's part of why we launched this newsletter. But we've also been exploring other platforms, too.
Other places you can find us:
In the immediate future, we plan to be most active on LinkedIn and through this newsletter. And as always, you can reach us by email contact@transjournalists.org.

ICYMI: TJA’s Style Guide around the world
The updated TJA Stylebook & Coverage Guide has been cited in several new resources for journalists on covering anti-trans violence and reporting on trans communities in Europe. We're also highlighted in the new Investigative Reporters and Editors editorial guides.
Our Stylebook and Coverage Guide draws on the expertise of more than 20 TJA members, including editors, reporters, and newsroom leaders with backgrounds in local, national, and international media organizations across beats and mediums. It also links to examples of best practices, reported pieces that contextualize issues, and helpful explainers of tips for specific beats written by other journalism organizations.

In this panel, trans and non-binary journalists and thought leaders discuss the double-edged sword of trans visibility today, as well as what more studios, media companies, and audiences could be doing to advance trans rights and uplift trans voices.
