ORGANIZATION

MISSION

Bay Area Bioscience Education Community (BABEC)

Driving all students’ critical thinking, scientific curiosity and career exploration and preparation through the development and support of a teacher community of practice.

Girls + Data

A mission of increasing data literacy at a younger age and providing middle school girls with hands-on learning opportunities in STEM careers in data analytics.

Ignited

Ignited is on a mission to connect underserved students to their future careers.

We do that by helping companies and foundations collaborate more effectively with teachers in K-12 schools, community colleges, and universities.

Imagine Science

Imagine Science is a collaboration of four leading national youth organizations (Boys & Girls Club, the Y, National 4-H Council, girls, inc) formed to bridge the STEM gap by igniting the imaginations of historically under-represented youth. We believe that prolonged, informal exposure to STEM increases a child's interest and builds a foundation for proficiency through high school and beyond.

We strategically aligned our STEM priorities and invested in the creation of a national network of Innovation Sites that partner with one another to share curricula, training, data and other assets in unprecedented ways in order to engage more under-represented youth and identify best practices.

Inspire Girls Now in Technology Education (Ignite)

IGNITE Worldwide is the answer to achieving gender equity in STEM. We work directly with teachers during the school day to provide programming that promotes STEM education and career advancement for girls and non-binary youth from historically marginalized communities. Through hands-on events that connect students with role models who live and work in their communities, students recognize new possibilities for their futures.
