Underserved students are often missing from the finalist groups of science research competitions. In order to change this, the Society for Science & the Public created the Advocate Program to provide mentors to encourage underserved students to enter projects in competitions. The Advocates receive training and support from Society staff, a $3000 stipend and a paid trip to Washington, D.C. to meet in person at a weekend-long convening. We encourage teachers and mentors to apply!
