Start a Teen Science Cafe in Your Community

Written By Raisa Rosado

Cafés are easy to start, and no prior experience with STEM is needed. If you are interested in learning about cafés or pondering creating one of your own, check out the following, and, or reach out to Katey Ahmann, Director of TSCN kahmann@stemnext.org for more. 

  • Attend one of the free seasonal 30-minute online information sessions on cafés basics. Session dates are listed on the Events page. 

  • Are you so ready that you don’t need an info session? Email Katey Ahmann, Director of TSCN, to sign up for a seasonal Onboarding Cohort for new adult leaders. 

  • Check out some of the research behind the teen science café model and the corresponding impacts on teens. 

  • Look over the Values which define teen science cafés. 

Ask yourself, is there someone who can commit to working with TSC staff Guides in a series of free one-on-one and group sessions with other potential adult leaders, webinars, and asynchronous learning modules?
