		| Abstract: | 
		What does it take to ensure the next generation of astrometrists? Funding for astrometric projects and a supply of smart, interested people to carry out the work. Outreach is fundamental to meeting both of these objectives. In this essay I will discuss why outreach matters, and offer tips on how to get started and achieve success. |
