Volunteer At STEM the Gap
We couldn't do it without you!
STEM the Gap runs on the energy and dedication of our amazing volunteers. If you’re interested in helping out, email swestemthegap@gmail.com with the dates you'd like to volunteer. Each volunteer will earn 3 service hours.
Volunteers are expected to arrive at 9:30 AM for setup and stay until 12:30 PM to assist with cleanup.
To ensure a safe and supportive environment for all participants, completion of SWE Youth Protection training is required. More details on the youth training, including the link to the training, can be found below.
Thank you for your interest in making a difference!

SWE Youth Protection
The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) is committed to providing a safe and secure environment for all participants in SWE- sponsored youth-focused programs throughout the world. Youth protection requires continued vigilance, and we work every day to protect children through appropriate policies and procedures at every level of our organization.
SWE’s Youth Protection Policy and supporting documents (SWE Advocacy Code of Conduct and SWE’s Bullying Prevention Guide) explain requirements and expectations for interacting with youth at SWE-sponsored events and activities across multiple event types and situations.
All volunteers and staff interacting with youth, including SWE youth advocacy leadership, must complete the following steps:
-
Review the three documents and act in accordance with this policy.
-
Complete the required training course every three years.
-
Acknowledge agreement with the code of conduct and standards for interacting with youth.
Once you have completed the training, please download your certificate and submit it to swestemthegap@gmail.com along with your name.
