How to Get Involved

There are a number of ways you can get involved in the activities of the National EPA-Tribal Science Council depending on your level of interest, availability and expertise.

Raising Science Issues
If you have identified a pressing tribal science issue and are interested in bringing it to the attention of the National EPA-Tribal Science Council, the best way to do so is through your Tribal or Agency representative. Please contact them directly to discuss any issues that you think might be appropriate for the TSC to address.

Participate in TSC Subcommittees and Workgroups
If you are a scientist doing work in any of the TSC's current areas of focus (see What We Are Doing) and would like to participate in its workgroups or subcommittees, please contact Monica Rodia, Executive Secretary, National EPA-Tribal Science Council at Rodia.Monica@epa.gov or 202-564-8322.

Attend TSC Workshops and Events
The TSC hosts or sponsors workshops and events across the country on specific priority tribal science issues. These workshops and events will be posted to the Science and American Indians Web site Announcements page and will be distributed via email to those that have signed up to receive e-mail updates. Funding is sometimes available for speakers and participants. If you are interested in receiving notices about these events, please click on the Receive Email Updates link located at the top right corner of any page of the Science and American Indians web site.
