WHAT IS FLIPS?
WHAT IS FLIPS?
FLIPS is a non-profit organization dedicated to furthering STEM education and leadership opportunities across the country. We walk high schoolers through the process of creating their own STEM day/summer camps.
WHY FLIPS?
THE PROBLEM
THE PROBLEM
In our fast-paced world, STEM (Science. Technology, Engineering, and Math) occupations are needed more than ever. Since 1990, employment in STEM occupations has grown 79%, with numbers only rising. Despite its importance, many communities lack adequate access to STEM resources. In 2019, women comprised only 27% of the STEM workforce, and 2 out of 3 women said they were not encouraged to pursue STEM careers. In 2021, Black and Hispanic workers comprised 8% and 15% of the STEM workforce, despite being 11% and 18% of the total American workforce, respectively.
SO WHAT?
SO WHAT?
FLIPS establishes self-sufficient STEM programs in schools across the country. Our camps provide opportunities for students from underrepresented backgrounds to explore STEM industries.
How you define an underrepresented group is up to you! We recognize each community has different populations with varying needs. In any case, FLIPS will guide you as you make a tangible impact. Join us as we flip STEM education!
