Creating a network of STEM learning opportunities
Explore our three workstreams:
-
STEM Education & Equity
We specialize in delivering high quality after-school STEM education programs adhering to Next Generation Science Standards.
80% of a child's learning life happens outside of school, but income determines access to enrichment experiences. Our STEM Education & Equity fund allows us to partner with organizations that reach underserved populations, bringing our programs to their sites free of charge or at a reduced rate.
-
Digital Equity
We are working to bridge the digital divide because equitable access to digital tools promotes economic growth for individuals and communities.
Through strategic partnerships across Westchester County and beyond, we offer wrap-around digital inclusion programs that connect economically fragile individuals to free tech skills training classes and free or low cost computer devices and internet access.
-
Summer Enrichment
The STEM Alliance is committed to providing quality summer programs because research shows summer matters in the academic, social and emotional growth of all children.
Since 2017, The STEM Alliance has been the lead administrator for Co-Op Summer Enrichment, a summer slide intervention program for the Mamaroneck Union Free School District. In addition, we run STEM enrichment programs for other summer camps and providers.
OUR MISSION:
The STEM Alliance bridges systemic gaps to provide equal access to critical science, technology, engineering and math learning resources with the goal of empowering communities, inspiring innovation and creating opportunity for all.
OUR VISION:
To serve as a network connecting families, educators & organizations to STEM as a means of solving problems and fostering innovation.
The STEM Alliance is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing STEM education and enrichment initiatives, and to ensuring equal access to STEM learning opportunities to all.
With STEM jobs (in science, technology, engineering and math) expanding at an accelerated pace, there is high demand for skilled graduates. The STEM Alliance is creating a network of learning opportunities to help inspire and grow the next generation of STEM leaders.
Our activities are designed to:
Enhance and expand STEM awareness, educational offerings, and extra-curricular opportunities.
Obtain grants to support STEM education, enrichment and professional development.

Create a strong network of STEM educators, professionals, and other nonprofit partners to increase our impact.
