Founded in 2014, Design Connect Create is a non-profit that envisions an equal number of women and men of all races/ethnicities and all social classes pursuing Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) careers. Its mission is to empower young women, especially minorities to be successful in STEM courses in high school. We do this by delivering a summer physics camp program which have been offered to young women since 2003. These camps increase their passion for the challenges and rewards of a STEM career, increase their academic performance in STEM courses and increase the number of women pursuing STEM majors in college.
