Join Us at Let’s Talk Science

We’re incredibly thankful to our outstanding Outreach volunteers who work hard in communities across Canada to make a difference in the lives of children and youth! Volunteers take on a variety of roles to help support our Outreach program.

 

Our Outreach program volunteers pass on their passion for STEM to youth in Canada. They shatter negative stereotypes and inspire children and youth to become engaged in STEM learning. Through Let’s Talk Science Outreach, we support educators and help youth form positive attitudes towards the role that STEM plays in their lives and futures.
