Mission Statement
We are a nonprofit dedicated to retaining women in the technology workforce and increasing the number of women and girls pursuing STEM-based careers.
Description
We hold events for women of all ages. Our goal is to keep women in STEM engaged and supported, and to help build confidence in women looking to break into a technical field. We want our event attendees to make friends, gain professional experience, and build a supportive and comforting community. Our events range from networking to hands-on workshops.
We are also gearing up to launch our high school porgram in Feburary 2017! The high school program revolves around getting high schoolers interested in and excited about technology! We try to find girls who already demonstrate the qualities of great engineers, but who might not recognize it on their own. Learn more about ChickTech: High School .
