Mission Statement
The Mission Science Workshop is a bilingual community science center that provides hands-on science enrichment activities to underserved youth from low-income communities, their schools and families. For 25 years, our neighborhood centers have provided informal spaces for children to participate in our experiments, tinkering and construction programs. These programs engage our students’ sense of curiosity and wonder, to create authentic learning experiences.

Each day, we can serve anywhere from 70-200 youth, with a yearly impact of approximately 10,000 individuals from across the city.
