Bringing Girl Power to STEM | Erin Ross
We encourage our children to chase their dreams, but what do we do to support them in the belief that they can chase any of their dreams? Today, we have Erin Ross, CEO of Girls Inc. LA, join us to talk about the amazing support they give to young girls as they grow up by encouraging the belief that they can do anything, that there are many opportunities out there for them especially in the realm of STEM. Programming and engineering aren’t just for boys!
