Celebra la Ciencia is a media/community outreach project developed by the  
Self-Reliance Foundation with a mission of increasing the involvement of Latino  
families and students in informal science, ranging from science centers/zoos  
etc to community science workshops/citizen science. We are currently  active 
in a number of communities across the country.  The project has been  funded 
by NSF and NIH-SEPA.  (Project website:  _www.celebralaciencia.org_ 
(http://www.celebralaciencia.org) )
 
I would enjoy meeting with anyone who would like to hear more about the  
project and consider collaborating on some of our upcoming efforts, which  include:
 
1.  A national conference bringing together educators, media  producers, and 
others who have an interest in informal science targeting  Latinos.
 
2.  Mobile bilingual exhibits on science, health, or science  careers.
 
3.  Using media.
 
4.  Becoming a partner in SRF's Family Science Page/Pagina Familiar de  la 
Ciencia (have your own  weekly or monthly family science page in your  own 
community's Spanish language newspaper).
 
I will be at ASTC Sunday Oct. 29 through Tuesday Oct. 31.  You can  reach me 
at the conference via my cell phone, 202-997-5539.
 
Thanks.
