Preparing today's youth for the workforce starts incredibly early in life; the Y and Battelle are inspiring the workforce of the future through exploration and access to STEM opportunities. 

The YMCA of Central Ohio and Battelle partnered to provide thousands of children in Central Ohio with opportunities to access Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education. Preparing today's youth for the workforce starts early in life; the Y and Battelle are inspiring the workforce of the future through exploration and access to STEM opportunities, especially for students who are under-resourced by existing efforts.

A $1,100,000 grant from Battelle helped launch STEM based community programs beginning in July 2022. The Y and Battelle is engaging more than 20,000 youth and families over the course of a two-year initiative in our communities.
