Ami Neiberger-Miller's work with the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS) includes working with the news media, designing strategic outreach campaigns, advising surviving families on media relations, speaking to organizations about TAPS, conducting online outreach to raise awareness with core audiences, writing press releases and other materials, and forging partnerships that help build support for TAPS and surviving families. Because she is a surviving family member of a fallen soldier, Ami brings a unique perspective to her role with TAPS. Ami's 22-year-old brother, U.S. Army Specialist Christopher Neiberger, was killed in August 2007 by a roadside bomb while serving with the U.S. Army in Baghdad, Iraq. She managed media attention focused on her grieving family and tries to use her personal experience and professional expertise to help others. Ami has emerged as a leading advocate for surviving families through her work with TAPS and the media. She authored a guide to managing the news media for military families dealing with traumatic situations. She has written for the Public Relations Society of America, been interviewed for the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies, and spoken at Columbia University on media coverage and trauma survivors. She testified for a Congressional Committee in June 2011 about Arlington National Cemetery. She has been interviewed by CNN, CBS Sunday Morning, the Pentagon Channel, the Voice of America, the Washington Post, the New York Times, the Associated Press, National Public Radio, and many other media outlets about the experiences of surviving military families. She also appears in the HBO documentary "Section 60: Arlington National Cemetery." As an active member of the TAPS Sibling Support Network, Ami says she finds strength in connecting with others who have experienced the similar loss of a loved one serving in the military. She has devoted more than 15 years of her career to helping organizations improve how they communicate and work with the media. She has worked with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, the Nature Conservancy, the National 4-H Council, the University of Florida, the National Veterans Legal Services Program, the American Association of Community Colleges, and Sister Cities International.
