Visit this blog to see how one girl benefitted: https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/glowblogs\/STEMcentralinmotion\/2016\/08\/24\/girls-into-stem-new-york-style\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Girls participating in the program are matched with a specially-selected STEM mentor and given access to a virtual platform hosting immersive content that will help them develop their 21st century skills \u2013 leadership, communication, and critical thinking. In addition, mentees can also take advantage of the college and university readiness module, live online engagements and webinars with inspirational guest speakers, a global, female community, and relevant, important discussions surrounding different STEM topics.<\/p>\n
