Join the National Day of Action to Stand Up For Science on March 7, 2026.
We will be rallying from 1-3pm at Civic Center Plaza with info tables on how you can get involved from 12pm.
Science makes our lives healthier, safer, and more just — from vaccines and clean water to climate resilience and life-saving research. But recent federal policy shifts have put scientific funding, diversity in research, and public trust in evidence at risk. That’s why we’re joining scientists, students, healthcare workers, educators, and community allies on March 7 to Stand Up for Science in San Francisco and across the nation.
This peaceful rally is a chance to amplify support for public investment in research, defend scientific integrity against political interference, and stand for diversity, equity, and inclusion in science that benefits everyone. Whether you’re a researcher, a teacher, a healthcare provider, or simply someone who believes in facts and progress, your voice matters. Bring a sign, bring a friend — and bring the power of truth into public view.
