Foundations come to BMSG when they want to understand better how the news media frame the issues they care about and when they want to provide our services for their grantees. Social change groups, news organizations, universities, and health departments and other government agencies hire BMSG to research the news, conduct training, and advise on media advocacy. We thank The California Wellness Foundation and The California Endowment for supporting projects that allowed us to develop this Web site.
