Northside STEM is a science, technology, engineering and math organization that was created to “empower students of color by providing hands-on Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) programs, activities and education that inspire and prepare them to be workers of today, tomorrow and the future.” The program was created for children in North Minneapolis and surrounding communities and has several partner organizations within the community.
