Youth STEMbassador Initiative

The inaugural Youth STEMbassador cohort will participate in a seven-month learning community with two primary goals:

  1.  Provide youth leader participants with experiences that offer them unique networking and skill-building opportunities to strengthen their STEM college and career readiness.
  2. Youth leaders will design and execute a project connecting peers or younger students in their communities to STEM learning opportunities.

Million Girls Moonshot

The Million Girls Moonshot is a national initiative that seeks to re-imagine "who can engineer, who can build and who can make." Working in conjunction with the Mott-funded 50 state afterschool network, this coalition aims to provide STEM learning opportunities to a million girls over the next 5 years. The OST environment is perfectly suited for students to pursue STEM avenues and inspire further exploration of STEM careers.
