Other STEAM Programs

So far I have seen mainly STEM (robotics in particular) but many are becoming STEM+A
iUrbanTeen, for example.

I have contacted Minds Matter Portland and the Executive Director told me that they would be interested in the meeting next year. Minds Matter is a Saturday program that enrolls students starting as high school freshmen for four years until graduation. Minds Matter help students to get into college and during high school summer vacation, students are sent to summer camps in universities around the USA. For more info, this is the website

I will email the Chair of the Board of TechStart to get them involved. Start Tech is focused on robotics. This is their website https://www.techstart.org/
I will email iUrbanTeen to see if they are interested. https://iurbanteen.org/

My final thought is that we can have a hybrid Expo/Summit where we add the summit to the event of last April, to invite the other organizations working on STEM+A to the table and in this way, we can launch “the coalition” as an organization.
