New Resource: PSEMP Communications Consultant and Support!

We’re delighted to announce the pilot effort to provide the PSEMP network with communication consultant support. Between now and Fall 2025, we have the opportunity to work with the team at Sea & Shore Solutions to support the growth of the network's communication skills and the development of new communication products, as part of implementing the PSEMP Communication Plan

The consultant team is available to work with individuals who participate in and connect with PSEMP in any manner on their communication needs. There are 3 primary ways the team can provide support:

  1. Developmental Editing: Includes planning for communication efforts and materials, identifying audiences, formatting, and tailoring materials to effectively communicate with intended audiences.
  2. Copyediting and Technical Editing: Including but not limited to peer reviewed publication drafts, draft reports, articles, and other written materials.
  3. Communication Products Development: Do you have a specific communication product request - videos, one-pagers, templates, etc.? Tell us more! Note that broader PSEMP products and needs will be prioritized in this task.

To request support of these services, please fill out this form at any time. We ask folks to allow approximately a week for the request to be reviewed and for a consultant team member or Partnership Staff to reach out. 

The Sea & Shore Solutions team includes the listed individuals below. Additional information about their experiences and work can be found on their website

  • Adrian Laufer
  • Deanna Caracciolo
  • Katy Nalven

As a reminder, Puget Sound Institute continues to provide critical communication support regarding the development of stories, articles, and synthesis. If folks are interested in connecting more on these initiatives, please reach out to Jeff Rice at jeffrice@uw.edu
