Especially for State Radiation Control Programs
State Radiation Control Programs are called upon to translate technical information and present it to the public on a variety of radiation issues.  No one person can be an expert in all of the areas, so we rely on partners to help us provide credible scientific information worded in a way that the public can understand it.  We like to use pictures, charts, and graphs to illustrate our points.  We want the information to be current.  And we need to provide information in a timely manner.

If you are looking for information to put together a press release or a speech on an issue that has arisen suddenly in your state, search this area of the CRCPD website for some hints about information available.  If you are asked to provide a talk at a local school, and are looking for materials to make your talk interesting and give the children something to think about later, check out the materials for schools.  If you are asked to speak to a patient advocate group about radiation safety, visit the CRCPD site.  Whether you are looking for information about ionizing or nonionizing radiation, machine sources or radioactive materials, nuclear power or waste, try this CRCPD resource first.  

If your research on a radiation issue leads you to a website that is terrific, please let us know about it.  And if you find something offensive or incorrect on any site you find in our mini-directory, TELL US IMMEDIATELY!  We will remove it.  The Committee on Public Information is proud of the product they developed, but realize it can only improve as people use it and provide feedback on sites that should be removed and sites that should be prescreened for this section to Lin Carigan at CRCPD.
