AZ StRUT was selected for an Equity in STEAM
grant for the 4th year in a row. Empowered by Intel, SRP, COX, and Waymo, YWCA is leading the Equity in STEAM Initiative to advance women and people of color across STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, mathematics) careers, to improve representation in STEAM statewide. As Arizona becomes a tech hub, there are tremendous opportunities for our STEAM
professionals to reflect the state’s workforce diversity.
This initiative addresses the gender and racial gaps that exist in access to STEAM education and careers. As part of the 4.0 cohort, AZ StRUT will participate in a Leadership Learning series and apply the grant support to our Women's Techie Lab at Fresh Start Women's Foundation.
