Community Wellness Check-in

In response to the many mental health and career challenges that science communicators are currently facing, NASW is hosting a series of unstructured, very informal socials where you can share in a safe space. Drop in and visit for as long as you can, when you can during the hour. All NASW members are invited. These socials will not be recorded.
