Kentucky Advocates for Science Policy and Research

We strive to educate interested persons in science advocacy and policy issues by 1) providing resources to learn about the field of science policy; 2) discuss past and current science policy issues; 3) teaching members how to appropriately respond to science-related policy decisions, including but not limited to press releases, position statements, letters to members, and forums; and 4) provide opportunities to engage in policy discussions with policy makers. We also provide opportunities for members to learn and practice science communication skills by 1) providing resources for members to learn and practice communication skills and 2) provide opportunities to perform outreach activities.
