STEM access in Newark

In Newark, more than a third of residents are Latino — and the STEM pipeline should look like the city. Amigos en Acción's STEM Farm brings hands-on tracks (software & web, applied STEM) with proof-of-work curriculum: every skill claim is backed by reviewable build evidence. Family mentors are wired into the loop, because the data is clear that cultural grounding drives persistence.

~19% of the U.S. workforce is Latino — but only ~8% of STEM workers are. That gap is not talent. It is access, routing, and proof. (Figures are approximate national estimates; see Pew Research and NSF data.)
