What We Do

Girls Positioned to Succeed

Women are underrepresented in critical STEM careers. For women to lead in these roles tomorrow, girls need opportunities today to explore STEM and engineer their futures. Our goal is to engage girls of all backgrounds with hands-on STEM experiences and role models, while helping them develop emotional intelligence that will serve them on any path they take.

 

How Design Connect Create is different

“The best things about camp were the design challenges. They were very creative and helped me understand the material more and how it connected to physics and science.”
