This post makes the little geek in me smile! On Saturday February 28th, 2015, The NOBEL Women (National Organization of Black Elected Legislative Women) are holding a 1 day technology workshop for girls ages 8-18.  This workshop focuses on technology and the internet and engaging our young women early on so that they can be prepared to work in the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) fields.

This is so needed as young girls of color are a minority in this field and it’s important that we invest in our youth.  The event is free but you must register by February 23rd! The event will be held at DC R.I.S.E Demonstration Center located at 2700 Martin Luther King Jr Ave, SE, Washington, DC 20032.
