Knowledge Is Power 

Program Details 

GHCI seeks to address the need for diversity in STEAM fields through its Knowledge Is Power Program. People say, "You do what you know. And some will say, "You don't know what you don't know."

 

We know that "EXPOSURE is the most critical criterion to a person's success when compared to PERFORMANCE and IMAGE."  Thus, if students are to excel in STEAM fields, they need to see STEAM professionals who look like them. Hence, the impetus will be there, "If that person became a doctor, I can do the same too!" GHCI is building a STEAM PIPELINE that includes mentoring and shadowing opportunities.
