Results/Conclusions The SOS program has impacted over 5,000 people with it's science education programs. SOS not only impacts the community, however, it also changes the outlook of many of its participating science students and introduces them to communicating science knowledge to the public. This has led to solid commitment to incorporating outreach and education to the surrounding community. In keeping with the theme of this conference, this model is presented as an opportunity for other college campuses to utilize our methodology and replicate this program elsewhere. We are creating educational units to disseminate to other college campuses and also through the publication of middle school hands-on science curricula notebooks using activities successfully piloted at local schools. It is our hope that this science education model of youth teaching youth can be replicated on college campuses throughout the country. Keywords: outreach, science education, hands-on,
