Service to Youth is focused on the academic success and healthy engagement of students.  Our goals are not only to prepare the youth to compete in a Global Society through challenging enrichment activities but increase the number of girls in the STEM space by empowering them to become groundbreakers, leaders, and builders of their own futures.  The primary goals are to:

​

  • Address the problem of underrepresentation of women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) based careers.

  • Develop a Partnership with Girls Inspired and Ready to Lead (GIRL, INC.) to conduct a series of after school virtual webinars with high school girls in our STEM Signature Program – STEAM PLUS a Pathway to A Lifetime of Unlimited Success Program.

  • Expand and support science, technology engineering and mathematics education.

  • Promote the integration of the arts (STEM To STEAM).

  • Conduct webinar presentations on coding, cyber security, and filmmaking.

  • Introduce women in various career fields where there is an under- representation of women specifically African American women, with the purpose to stimulate an interest in these professions.

  • Establish partnerships with community stakeholders with the intention of gathering mentorship opportunities and promoting program sustainability.
