Transforming STEM is at the core of NGCP's initiatives and partner programs. We work with, and provide resources for, nonprofits, K-12 formal and informal educators, higher education faculty, and leaders in industry and government. Our diverse efforts range from helping organizations scale and deliver content and programs to managing digital tools that increase representation, showcase inspiring female role models, and connect youth to STEAM opportunities.
