Creating opportunities in science, technology, engineering, math & medicine for students in STEMM education programs and workforce.
Our Story
Clear Direction Mentoring exists to expand access to science, technology, engineering, math, and medicine (STEMM) education and careers . We connect graduate students and postdoctoral fellows with high school students through long-term mentorship starting from their sophomore year in high school, students gain support through their first-ever paid STEMM internships. We partner with New York University (NYU), University of Colorado (CU) Anschutz Medical Campus, local businesses, and STEMM grants to break down barriers and empower our Fellows to achieve their dreams in STEMM.

“At my school, there are not many people of color in the STEMM field, and on top of that, you don’t have the resources and opportunities. Clear Direction Mentoring has given me the network opportunity that I’m so grateful for.”
“I found the mentors really helpful, especially during my college process. I got a lot of mentors to review my personal statement, help me edit my supplemental essays, and really plan out my college list.”
