Shout Out to Our Million Girls Moonshot Peer Learning Community!
We want to give a huge shout out and appreciation to all those who participated in the Million Girls Moonshot Peer Learning Community over the last 3 months. Over the course of the Peer Learning Community, 12 out-of-school time professionals learned about Engineering Mindset practices to support their facilitation of STEM activities and how to make their STEM programming more equitable and inclusive. They showed up every other week to connect with one another through live virtual sessions and to collectively learn best practices when facilitating STEM activities. AzCASE appreciates your commitment to delivering high quality STEM programming to your youth that is equitable and inclusive. We look forward to seeing all the amazing things you will continue to do in your programs!

Bringing STEM Engagement To Young People Through Community-Based Orgs

Many young people consider community-based organizations, like yours, a home away from home. Whether your organization is local or within a national network, you give students a safe place to go after school, on weekends, and during summer vacations. Today, organizations are increasingly incorporating STEM activities into their program offerings and providing opportunities for students to grow new skills. Community-based organizations like the Boys and Girls Clubs of America, YMCA, Girl Scouts, 4-H, and local nonprofits can introduce young people to STEM ideas and engagement activities that are not always available in their homes and schools.
