How do we build a more inclusive workforce?
By investing in the next generation!
In this episode, Tiffany Gamble and Gael Beauboeuf from the Emerging Ladies Academy (ELA) detail their work empowering Black girls in STEM. ELA runs focused STEM programs in six schools across Omaha and Council Bluffs, training future engineers and innovators.
They share the reality: Black girls face a double barrier of sexism and racism in the tech industry. ELA is directly addressing this by providing a supportive environment, hands-on learning, and necessary mentorship.
Listen to hear about ELA's global reach (including a chapter in Ghana), Gael's unique journey from Haiti to Nebraska tech, and how you can help using the link below.
ELA urgently seeks mentors—female professionals, especially those in male-dominated fields—and donations of laptops, tablets, or financial resources to support their classes in coding and cyber safety.
