The Coalition for Science After School is an organization dedicated to bringing high-quality science, technology, engineering and mathematics learning opportunities to youth in afterschool settings.
From their website:
“Afterschool settings offer an opportunity to have hands-on experiences with science using interesting materials and simple scientific tools. With deliberate programming, content-rich activities and hands-on materials, they can foster an environment of investigation, experimentation, exploration, conversation and reflection—the foundations of scientific inquiry. These settings offer an opportunity to get young people excited and invested in subjects that often seem too distant and irrelevant while exposing young people to the wonder of discovering and studying their world.”
Their website is full of resources and opportunities for youth as well as individuals and groups looking to provide support. Some of the learning resources are available in Spanish. Check out the directory to find fun learning opportunities near you!
