Office of Communications
The Office of Communications is the front door to the USGS. While our scientists are conducting in-depth research, it is the job of the Office of Communications to present their research in a format suitable to the public.
Congressional Liaison Office
We help the USGS communicate with Capitol Hill about the importance of our science and provide information about actions on the Hill that may impact USGS work.
Public Affairs
We create articles and announcements sharing USGS science on our website and work with the news media to reach broad audiences. As part of our robust fundamental science practices, USGS scientists are free to talk to the media about their science without interference. We ask all media representatives to initiate all inquiries through our Public Affairs program so we can coordinate appropriately internally.
Internal Communications
We serve the needs of the USGS employee and are responsible for engaging employees in a dialogue with USGS leadership.
