We had a great time this week attending and sharing STEM early learning activities at the Tennessee Child Care Resource and Referral's (TCCR&R) Open House. Thank you TN CCR&R for having us!

Listen to youth! 🙌🏼

Join us November 26th for a town hall on raising resilient youth. We've assembled a panel of experts to discuss mental health, prevention, and having difficult conversations with kids. You'll also leave a with a toolkit of resources! RSVP at metrodrug.org/events/novembe….

Happy #STEMDay! We're celebrating because we know afterschool programs are a natural place for youth to explore, innovate, and develop interest in STEM—especially for those traditionally underrepresented in STEM fields. 💪 #AA3PM aa3pm.co/STEM
