As we noted at the beginning of this series, one of the most powerful ways for a young woman to pursue STEM is to have someone encourage her to do so. STEM professionals visiting classrooms and events, engaging stories, and visual depictions of women in STEM show girls the possibilities available to them, and shatter stereotypes that only boys and men can make an impact in these fields.
