Nearly 200 @FordhamNYC students joined our 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb w/@heart911team, climbing 2,200 steps in honor of the ascent the FDNY undertook that day. Candles were lit as the names of 36 alumni and three students killed in the attacks were read. We will never forget.

I think we need to mobilize the whole country in support of military families and vets.
(Repeating)
To that end:
Army veteran Jordan Folk came to @FordhamNYC looking for a degree. What he found was a community, a renewed sense of purpose, and a new mission after military service.

Better disability coverage does not require more time. It requires better structure. Before publishing, ask: what system or policy is responsible for this outcome? If you cannot name the system, you do not yet have accountability.

Want to go beyond “good intentions” and build disability coverage skills you can actually use on deadline?
The Fix the Frame Workshop Series is a practical training series for journalists and editors focused on applying the guide in real newsroom workflows — from framing and sourcing to headlines, visuals, social copy, and accessibility.
Each session is designed to help participants strengthen disability coverage with tools they can use in their next story, not just in a training room.
📅 Workshop 1 (Foundations): April 16
📅 Workshop 2 (Sourcing & Authority): May 21
📅 Workshop 3 (Story Structure + Intersectionality): June 18
📅 Workshop 4 (Language + Consent + Disclosure): July 16
📅 Workshop 5 (Packaging + Accessibility + MV Ethics): August 20
🕐 All sessions: 1:00–2:00 PM ET
Ideal for reporters, editors, producers, and newsroom leaders who want stronger, more accurate disability coverage under deadline pressure.
Visit mvj.network/disability to sign up for the workshop series.
