Our mission is to accelerate gender parity in the boardroom, ensuring that today’s businesses are successfully supported by Modern Boards.

About us
Young people grow up in Washington surrounded by a thriving STEM economy, yet they don't always receive the support they need to participate. If they’re students of color, girls, or rural students, they’re more likely to face disparities.

Young people grow up in Washington surrounded by a thriving STEM economy, yet they don't always receive the support they need to participate. If they’re students of color, girls, or rural students, they’re more likely to face disparities.
At Washington STEM we work to increase STEM access, interest, and success for all students. We nurture and scale breakthrough ideas in STEM education and learning, engage in regional, cross-sector partnerships, and advocate for important policy changes to increase student success. We focus our efforts on four key initiatives: computer science, early math, science & engineering, and career-connected learning.
Our goal is to position all young people as “future ready” community members - people with the technical and critical skills needed to thrive in today’s jobs and create and excel in the unknown jobs of tomorrow; people who exemplify opportunity and create shared prosperity for our communities.
