This event has ended.
Afterschool programs in Illinois are providing opportunities for youth in Illinois to engage in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) in innovative ways. Afterschool programs provide the flexibility and extra time that doesn't exist during the school day to allow students to explore STEM and find their passions.
We seek to make industry partners to help move the needle for Illinois Youth in STEM and create sustainable STEM programming for youth around Illinois.
