LGBTQ+ Inclusion in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM)
Channel: PFLAG National
Date: 2023-04-14

Research consistently shows that LGBTQ+ students and professionals in STEM-related fields experience disadvantages, social isolation, and harassment more often than their straight and cisgender peers. LGBTQ+ identified professionals in STEM fields often report that they are not given the resources that they need to do meaningful work and that their expertise is consistently devalued.

Join us this Thursday, April 13 at 4:30 PM ET / 1:30 PM PT for Something to Talk About Live where we will be discussing “How LGBTQ+ individuals are changing the STEM field for the better", by Chenue Her which appeared on the We Are Iowa website. We're excited to welcome Marcie Mathis, member and Society of Women Engineers affiliate representative at Out to Innovate (formerly NOGLSTP) and Abby Ray, Vice President of Marketing and Communications at oSTEM to the conversation!
