This summer, NASW once again offered its David Perlman Virtual Mentoring Program for graduate and undergraduate students. During the program, more than 85 students were matched with NASW volunteers from a variety of science writing backgrounds for mentorship and support. About half of those students also opted to write a reported piece, with guidance from their mentors, and three students were recognized with NASW Summer Writing Awards.
