About This Cause
The National Girls Collaborative Project (NGCP) brings together organizations committed to informing and encouraging girls to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). NGCP connects, creates, and collaborates with advocates for transformative change to advance the agenda in gender equity and expand girls’ participation in STEM. While NGCP programs and partners are in every state, we have 33 Collaborative Leadership teams in 41 states, which facilitate collaboration between more than 42,500 organizations that serve over 20.2 million girls and 10 million boys. NGCP is a network of networks. Local Collaboratives have an extensive network of organizations and individuals engaged in pursuing this common goal to share with and learn from each other. Collaboratives vary in focus areas and populations served, and include higher education institutions, community-based organizations, and private nonprofits, but all work to increase gender equity in STEM fields. Each Collaborative has a defined region, acting as a hub for local programs to coordinate resources and reach girl-serving STEM programs in the community. The NGCP Collaboration model strengthens the capacity of programs through training that features exemplary practices, program models, curricula, products such as toolkits, and how to design activities for results. We grant and evaluate mini-grants to support partnerships. For more than 22 years, NGCP has been transforming STEM.
