We are thrilled to welcome *NEW* member @rootsofsuccess to the STEM Collective! Give them a follow and read about all the good work they do:

"An empowering environmental literacy and job training program that prepares youth and adults who have been failed by the education system to access jobs and career pathways in environmental fields and improve environmental and social conditions in their communities. Centered around a federally registered DOL Apprenticeship and Pre-Apprenticeship, Roots of Success is offered in high schools, youth programs, job training programs, reentry programs, prisons, jails, juvenile facilities, and other workforce and education settings throughout the United States. Since 2009, over 26,000 youth and adults have gone through the program; over 12,000 took the course while incarcerated."

We got FISHY with it at the @cabrilloaquarium and @kcrw #SummerNights ! Had the chance to hatch some baby grunion fish ... and then witness the grunion run as fish came up on the shore to spawn. Oh what a night!

Congrats to our LA STEM Collective member, Cabrillo Marine Aquarium, for an incredible community event in #SanPedro !

*NEW* member alert! Welcome @frostequity to the LA STEM Collective and give them a follow!

"Frost Equity Initiative is a 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to diversify the science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics (STEAM) industries by providing early exposure to K-12 students in underrepresented groups. We partner with schools and industry professionals to offer fun, interactive, educational STEAM enrichment experiences and mentoring relationships. We target Los Angeles area schools where over 95% of students qualify for the federal free or reduced lunch program, and the students are underperforming in math and science."

Reposted @ciclavia ➡️ Next up: CicLAmini—Watts on Sunday, May 21, from 9 AM-3 PM!

🎉 Join us for the first CicLAmini ever in less than a month!

CicLAmini is a more pedestrian and neighborhood-oriented version of a traditional open street event. We will transform a one-mile stretch of Central Ave and 103rd St in Watts into a public park for the day. Expect a slower-paced, more casual experience with street games, local business engagements, art and cultural activities and more sprinkled along the entire route, not just the Hubs. All the more reason to dismount and stay awhile!

A CicLAmini, just like a regular CicLAvia Sunday, was created to promote more respect and infrastructure for bike and pedestrian-friendly public spaces.

As always, our route is welcoming to all ages and abilities. Plenty of bike parking will be available for those who want to take advantage of the walkability of the new CicLAmini.

We look forward to developing this new concept with you!
