Seven families for a total of 11 scholars and seven caregivers participated in the study. We hosted 10 online learning sessions and one end-of-year face-to-face session. We explored topics related to chemistry, forensic science, mathematics and food insecurity, geography, organ donation, and financial wellness.en-USBlack girlsSTEMLearning experiencesOther
