People need to be able to access and decode the scientific literature on science communication. They need help in evaluating their own work to determine when their intuitions about science communication might be wrong, and "we need venues for the kinds of sustained interpersonal ties, shared experiences, trust, and empathy that enable us to speak with legitimacy to our audiences." Finally, on the societal level, it is important to provide information and establish relationships before issues polarize and spin out of control.
