Expanding HTS Outreach to Community Events
Results: Over 30 School Events, 16 Speaking Engagements,11 Teen Science Cafe Lectures/Interviews
HTS in 2017-2019:
HTS now helps with community events not only every participating HTS school, but also many other schools in the Austin Area. HTS leaders now have speaking engagements at prestigious organizations such as Dell Medical School, the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), and St. Edward’s University. These speakers promote HTS’s mission to prevent disease and also recruit volunteers at these venues. HTS is recognized by the Austin Independent School District as the only Teen Science Café in Austin. As such, HTS organizes medical and STEM lectures open to attendees from all the Austin Metro Area.
HTS in 2016-2017:
HTS helped half of the participating schools organize their science fairs. HTS also participated in some school events such as CATCH/Health Fairs. We created a scientific community by recognizing HTS winners at the Children's Hospital Family Fun Fair. HTS winners met their peers and learned about their peers’ research projects.
