Some possible ideas for ways to share:

• Local media -- I (Bill) spent about a dozen years doing a regular gig on local talk radio, explaining current research to folks in ways that showed how they could use new findings to make their lives better in very concrete ways.
• Write a column for the local paper
• Do local radio -- especially during drive times or breakfast
• Under "Where" I listed using local public television stations which allow for one to put on a show (or series of programs) on educational topics
• Being a source for your local media folks -- be the person they want to come to when they have questions
• Send stories to your local media
• Social media
• Blog
• share things on your networks, e.g., LinkedIn, facebook, etc.
•  Become a regular adviser to local groups, such as
• school groups (PTAs, teachers, administrators, parents)
• local politicians
• chamber of commerce
• Cooperative Extension Service
• local organizations (business, public service, clubs, etc.)
• Have a place where people could store PowerPoint presentations on topics would be good. That way, if someone asked me to give a talk on the psychology of terrorism, I could look up a powerpoint and some references quickly to get started. I could have something I could start editing, and make my own.
• Regular lectures -- on the SUNY Broome Community College campus, we have a common hour on Tuesday and Thursday, when we schedule lectures on topics of interest to students, faculty, or the general public (or any combination).  I've (Bill) done several of these on psychological topics of interest to students and members of the public, including information about studying, cults, and decision-making.

Other possiblities:

• Try to link our outreach to things happening in our communities
• Special events 
• Holiday celebrations
• For instance, think of all the things we could do with Halloween
• Special commemorations

Some possible resources for us to link with:

• The Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science as SUNY Stonybrook: http://www.centerforcommunicatingscience.org/our-mission-2/
• Union of Concerned Scientists: http://www.ucsusa.org/

Special Training:

• STP-sponsored communication training tracks at all ToP conferences and at APA and APS in the STP tracks
• Such tracks should have a mix of presentations, workshops, and round-tables
• There also needs to be time for all participants and presenters to socialize with one another, to build trust and relationships
• It's also important for presenters and participants to exchange contact information, and to stay in touch
• This will help them to stay on track and to keep energized about the ideas
• Perhaps we should set up a sort of contact clearing-house for this purpose
• Perhaps it would be useful to have some sort of regular communication so that presenters and participants would be encouraged to keep it all up.  This might be a monthly or quarterly email newsletter or e-zine.
