STEM-O-Ween Seattle

iUrban Teen is a STEM+Arts education program that brings together underrepresented teens and young adults for career exploration and mentoring. The non-profit organization which launched in 2011 has positively impacted over 9,000+ youth with a geographic reach covering Oregon, Washington, California, Texas, and soon New York. In addition, there is a focus on family engagement and that all programs are free to eliminate cost barriers for youth to participate. There is an emphasis on cultivating strong family relationships and building a sense of community for the youth. iUrban Teen has established a welcoming community that also provides a strong support network, not only for historically excluded youth, but also those in foster care and youth with disabilities.
