The Forensic Chemistry Division of ACS Inter Ponce chapter is dedicated to enrich the professional development of our forensic science students. Our mission is the integration of our science programs with the forensic chemistry applications and influence the college and outside campus community. Different activities were organized to address the division goals. Some of the activities includes conferences, demonstrations to public and private schools, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries in our island, general-public and elderly community. As forensic scientists, educate our community and contribute to the reduction of criminal activities in our neighborhood is a main goal. To increase our workforce, new volunteers were recruited by doing new activities in the science area, such as crime scenes, demo labs, competitions and social activities. Due to the impact of Hurricane Maria in our island, giving support and helping the affected communities is a priority, making us part of the movement “Puerto Rico Rises”. Forensic chemistry is an open opportunity to explore the integration of different strategies and disciplines in one experience.
