Houses of STEAM is a program for Compton youth, k-6th, and their families to learn STEAM education through hands-on training, building projects, attending field trips and speaking with BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color) professionals in the STEAM career fields. There will be 2 learning experiences each month for families to attend in person. Parent participation is mandatory. All project supplies, food and transportation costs for events will be free, unless otherwise stated. It's going to be a life changing experience for your little ones. You don't want to miss this opportunity.
Houses of STEAM is a program of Unearth and Empower Communities, an independent non profit organization founded in 2013. Our mission is to create pathways to college, employment, and entrepreneurship for Compton youth through engagement with education & the arts.
Once a child joins one of our programs, we journey with them until they become adults.
Anticipated Dates for Houses of STEAM:
November 2022 - August 2023
We encourage your entire family, neighbors and friends to join our Houses of STEAM. Teamwork makes the dream work.

“My daughter is a very curious girl with drive. As a single mother on a fixed income this is a great opportunity for us to participate in one of her interests without putting us in a financial hardship. This would give a great introduction to STEAM."
