Resources to Support STEAM Learning

The California AfterSchool Network (CAN) is excited to be a part of the Million Girls Moonshot initiative. The Million Girls Moonshot is helping re-imagine who can engineer, who can build, who can make. It is inspiring and preparing the next generation of innovators by engaging 1 million girls in STEM learning opportunities through afterschool and summer programs over the next five years.

CAN’s MGM Journey

In Year One (2020 – 2021):

• CAN worked closely with three STEAM Hubs and will be sharing resources out with the entire field.

Our goals for Year Two (2021-2022):

1. Convene the MGM community of practice to share strategies for local implementation, and surface promising practices, challenges, and lessons learned. 
2. Increase the reach and effectiveness of communication and outreach efforts. 
3. Leverage participation in the Million Girls Moonshot initiative to support further partner engagement.
