The application period for the Fall 2026 Young Voices of Science Program
runs *Wednesday, August 19th to Friday, September 4th.*

   - What: FREE science communication training and real-world practice for
   science scholars!
   - Who: Graduate, undergraduate students and early-career scientists in
   environmental (or similar) fields are eligible to apply
   - When: Series of eight Zoom workshops held on Thursdays, September 24th
   through November 12th, 6:00 – 7:30 pm ET
   - Where: Wherever you are, via Zoom!

No need to be a student to apply!

The Young Voices of Science program consists of a series of expert-led
workshops, each designed to prepare and empower science scholars to share
their knowledge, concerns, and hopes for the future with the wider world,
and provide a launch pad for public engagement early in their scientific
careers. Workshop leaders are experts in public engagement with science,
creative writing, storytelling, and science-to-policy outreach. Class size
is limited to 20-25 participants; we ask that participants commit to all
eight workshops and design and carry out at least one outreach project,
with support from a staff mentor.

We encourage you to apply by the deadline once our application opens and to
share this opportunity with your networks! To learn more about the program,
hear from YVoS alumni, and explore past outreach projects, visit *Young
Voices of Science*. <https://youngvoicesofscience.org/> For questions,
