Rural Students in STEM, Inc.

Description

Rural Students in STEM was founded in August 2020 with the mission of connecting rural high school students to career and educational opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Rural Students in STEM seeks to accomplish our mission through three phases: (1) Resource development and outreach, (2) mentorship, and (3) financial support. Our activities are currently focused on Phase 1. We hope to generate a portfolio of resources for rural students and initiate connections with rural schools and students. In phases 2 and 3, we aim to connect students to mentors and financial resources to aid in their educational journeys.

Beyond the resources we aim to provide to rural students, RSSTEM also looks to support our high school and collegiate volunteers in developing key experiences and supporting them in their initiatives. Check out our website (rsstem.org) to learn more and view our current resource collection.
