Scientific Adventures for Girls delivers afterschool STEM programs to TK–6th grade students, with a special focus on girls of color from low-income families and communities. The organization offers girls-only programs and also provides co-educational classes in library and camp settings. Its approach uses the “6 C's of Being a Scientist” framework: Curious, Creative, Confident, Collaborative, Committed, and Changemaker. The program reports that 80% of girls who have been to their afterschool STEM classes can’t wait to come back. Scientific Adventures for Girls also runs a STEM Scholar Club for teen girls and gender expansive youth and offers an exclusive STEM Career Day with a Bay Area tech company that includes a career panel with local women in tech. The leadership team includes Tiffany Sprague and Courtenay Carr Heuer.
Scientific Adventures for Girls has served over 10,000 children and families across 37 school sites through its STEM programs in the San Francisco East Bay area. It works with families, school districts, teachers, after school program agencies, policymakers, corporations, public libraries, museums, politicians, and universities to address the gender and minority achievement gap in STEM. One parent, Jazmyne M., who is also a former program coordinator at Techbridge Girls, shared that her kindergartener has had so much fun during her time with Scientific Adventures for Girls and described her daughter as a budding scientist, connecting this to the program and thanking the organization for its dedication to changing the face of science so that it reflects young women like her daughter.
