This agenda outlines the importance of combating stereotype threat and building supportive communities for girls in technology. Highlighting strategies from the Girls of Technology initiative, it emphasizes the need for role models, opportunities, and social connections to eliminate isolation among young girls in the field. Through monthly luncheons, field trips, and conferences, the program aims to foster a collaborative environment that empowers girls, enhances their skills, and encourages their participation in technology. Join us in transforming classrooms and communities.
