2019 AISL PI Meeting Poster: Latina SciGirls

February 11, 2019 | Media and Technology

Latina SciGirls addresses specific barriers that prevent many young Latinas from participating fully in STEM, including:

  • Lack of STEM identity (girls’ ability to envision themselves as STEM professionals)
  • Limited exposure to STEM role models who look like them
  • Lack of knowledge and/or misunderstanding of STEM fields
