Ongoing March for Science campaigns:
-Support Gun Violence Research: Following the tragedy of the Parkland shooting in February 2018, an open letter was written and signed with the intention of repealing the Dickey amendment on funding gun violence research. Congress recently clarified that the Dickey amendment does not ban gun violence research, but more work is still needed in researching the gun violence epidemic.
-Put the "Science" back in Science: An ongoing petition sent to Congress every time new officials are appointed, this campaign persists in order to bring scientists into conversations surrounding science-related policy--to put the "science" back into science.
Primarily, the March for Science utilizes social media to communicate actions taken by the movement as well as news about the marches themselves. This allows information to be disseminated in a quick and easy manner to a wide number of people interested in marches from locations all around the nation and world. The March for Science also uses mass communication via news conferences and press releases to inform the public at large of the movement's goals and practices. Furthermore, their extensive website serves to provide as much information as possible about each and every facet of the March for Science from those involved in its leadership and direction to the countless satellite marches being conducted around the world.

The "Dial-a-Scientist" program was made in order to create substantial channels of communication between scientists and the public. People can contact scientists in a wide selection of fields with question regarding the truth and pertinent information whether they would just like to know more about it or if they would like to present this knowledge to a larger group via a discussion format--promoting active engagement of the public in science-learning. This space serves as an arena to bridge the rift that has formed between science and society, connecting the uninformed with the informed in order to better-inform decisions and people's lives.
