Who do you partner with in your outreach efforts? Are there groups in your area that can provide the infrastructure you need to deliver your content to a larger audience? In this session we will explore the possibilities of partnering with out of school time networks to disseminate science education materials and content. We will use, as examples, the partnerships that Pacific Science Center and the NASA Education Resource Center at University of Washington have built with Schools Out Washington (SOWA) and Washington State MESA (Math Science and Engineering Achievement). SOWA and MESA have statewide professional development and program infrastructures to serve their direct service providers. By leveraging the statewide provider network that these groups serve, Pacific Science Center and NASAERC have been able to deliver content more efficiently and to a much broader audience. Utilizing a ``train the trainer" model, as well as direct delivery, these partnerships allow science organizations to reach the underserved audiences they wish to reach and the OST Service Groups to offer more services and trainings for their constituencies. In examining the successes and challenges faced by Pacific Science Center and NASAERC in building these partnerships, we will launch brainstorming and discussion with you. There will be time for participants to share similar experiences and to develop plans of their own. If you have unique partnerships to share or want to gain insights to develop new ones, come join this lively discussion!
