That Could Be ME!
Develop, produce, and share motivational print and electronic biographies featuring women role models in STEM and high-demand careers for placement in schools and public libraries.
Girls often fail to see themselves as successful in professional careers. They shut down early, typically by third grade. Exposure to impactful biographies of those who have overcome struggles creates engagement and changes aspirations. Students will make better academic choices and improve their aspirations through That Could Be ME!. Developing and distributing biographies of successful professionals to schools and public libraries in our state will serve as a pilot for scaling.
