Providing opportunities in science, technology, engineering, math, & medicine for underrepresented students
Our Story
Clear Direction Mentoring exists to address our nation’s need to diversify science, technology, engineering, math, and medicine (STEMM) education programs and workforces. Graduate students and postdoctoral fellows provide long-term mentorship to underrepresented minority students in STEMM from their sophomore year in high school to their first-ever paid STEMM internships. We partner with New York University (NYU), University of Colorado (CU) Anschutz Medical Campus, local businesses, and STEMM grants to break down barriers and empower our Fellows from historically marginalized and excluded backgrounds to achieve their dreams in STEMM.
