The YMCA is helping all children reach their full potential by supporting their unique youth development journeys. At more than 1,000 YMCA sites nationwide, youth are engaged in year-round STEM activities that nurture their curiosity, inspire creativity and teach them how to succeed.
STEM stands for Science-Technology-Engineering-MATH. Many of the careers of the future will involve skills in one of these four areas. An afterschool setting is the perfect space to explore hands-on science activities from plants to robotics to computer programming.
