Hidden Figures, the phenomenal true story of the black female mathematicians at NASA whose calculations helped fuel some of America’s greatest achievements in space has created a national buzz.  The accomplishments of these women and thousands more over the past decades demonstrates the intellectual capabilities of women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math).

Yet, today, minority women comprise fewer than 1 in 10 employed scientists and engineers!
Despite significant strides, major gaps still exist for women and girls of color in STEM education and careers. While in a recent survey, three quarters of teenage girls of color expressed interest in STEM, women and girls of color are severely underrepresented in STEM educational programs and careers.

Our girls need us to advocate for their success as the next generation of STEM leaders! Help create opportunities for the girls in your family or community.

Celebrate the women of Hidden Figures by creating CHANGE!
