Outreach Committee

- What We Do -

Mission for outreach: Our job is to empower our community by advocating for STEM and higher education. 

But also, to empower each other! We can’t empower anyone if we are not empowered ourselves.

Join the Outreach Committee and organize events like…

Dia/Noche de Ciencias

Noche de Ciencias is meant to inspire and teach students about STEM career fields through interactive activities. Students have the opportunity to discover new career avenues while parents are encouraged to attend and learn about the higher education application process!

Equipando Padres

Equipando Padres is a parent-focused initiative designed to empower Latino families with the knowledge, confidence, and resources they need to support their students’ journeys in higher education and STEM. Through workshops, bilingual panels, and open conversations with professionals and educators, families learn about financial aid, college pathways, campus support systems, and the power of community.
