I currently work with many organizations to offer fun and engaging programming workshops for youth in an effort to increase the number of underrepresented groups in the STEM pipeline. Through community partnerships with Strong TIES, CMD-IT, Hidden Level Games and grants from many supporters and corporate sponsors, we have delivered workshops free of charge to 1000s of under-served youth in over 8 cities across the country.

 

I also speak at various conferences on educational outreach and enrichment programs for minority youth. If you are a parent, educator or student interested in bringing a workshop to your school or would like me to speak at your next STEM event, send an email to  danielle[at]daniellecummings.com. And please check out my presentation from TAPIA 2015, to learn how to implement a workshop in your community.
