The Outreach spoke organizes programs and events for members of Genome Sciences to interact with the broader UW and Seattle community. We also conduct external community outreach events to promote science engagement with the public.

• We create and lead outreach events connecting with a variety of community stakeholders outside of GS and UW
• We support the promotion, execution, and evaluation of outreach and mentorship events.
