Atomic Allies Event

Expanding your Outreach Impact: Atomic Allies Nuclear Science Week Tools

September 13, 2023|2:00–3:15PM (3:00–4:15PM EDT)

Available to All Users

The Atomic Allies joined forces for this engaging and informative session on how to elevate your Nuclear Science Week programming and expand your impact. Nuclear Science Week is a great opportunity to get out into the community to generate support for nuclear science and technology and to inspire future generations to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and math. Atomic Allies shared some of the most impactful examples of successful programming, reviewed lessons learned and facilitated a discussion so that all members can achieve their goals.

The Atomic Allies is comprised of the American Nuclear Society, the North American Young Generation in Nuclear, the Nuclear Energy Institute, and U.S. Women in Nuclear.
