Million Women Mentors - LA

Mentoring is one of the most effective levers to propel and support women and girls on STEM pathways

Our mission is to collaborate on a state level to build capacity of participating organizations to provide opportunities and support for girls and women to pursue and succeed in STEM careers.  We represent the state of Louisiana in STEMConnector's Million Women Mentors initiative.  Learn more about MWM and STEMConnector.

Research shows individuals with mentors have improved academic, social, and economic prospects. For women in STEM fields, this becomes increasingly important as young women look to role models to help them gain their confidence and increase opportunities. 

If you are a local business or industry leader and would like to join the movement to champion women and girls in STEM, get in touch with us:

  • Stay up to date with knowledge of opportunities available in the state 
  • Gain innovative ways to mentor and establish mentoring program in your organization
  • Sponsor an event or serve on the state committee 
  • Increase visibility for your STEM diversity efforts share your organization's STEM resources

Are you a retired STEM professional and would like to volunteer with MWM? We would love to speak with you. Join the group of leaders across sectors who work to activate the movement in the state and find ways to connect the movement to existing and growing efforts to support women and girls in STEM.
