Closing the Racial Gap in STEM: An Interactive Webinar Series
June 16, 2021 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
FreeJoin the KC STEM Alliance in this five-part series of conversations to explore the ways our region is moving to close the racial gap in STEM.

Panelists will include community and corporate partners, mentors, parents, teachers, students and STEM professionals.
Join us from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on consecutive Wednesdays as we answer your questions, explore what’s working and why, and identify gaps and consider how to address them.
