Nevada Girls In STEM
About Us
Nevada Girls in STEM is on a mission to close the gender and under-represented gaps in STEM fields and change the image of what a woman in STEM looks like and does. Our organization values diversity, equity, and inclusion as essential to our mission. Nevada Girls in STEM aims to make learning science fun and engaging for all. We offer small class settings online or in person during the summer, where we host intensive weeklong camps. We also promote conversations about creating inclusivity in STEM fields through community outreach.
