Washington Stem Center

Washington stem (wa stem) is a statewide, education nonprofit leveraging stem for social change, removing barriers to credential attainment, and creating pathways to long-term economic security for systemically underserved students. Founded on the principles of equity, partnership, and sustainability, washington stem seeks smart, scalable solutions that lead to removing barriers and creating equitable access for historically excluded students-students who will become the leaders, critical thinkers, and creators that will tackle the biggest challenges facing our state, nation, and the world. We envision a state where skin color, zip code, income, and gender do not predict educational and career outcomes.
