The JBMSHP staff attended the STEM PUSH Network convening in Columbus, Ohio from September 17-20, 2025. The convening was held as a part of the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC) conference, which welcomed college admission professionals from across the United States.
The STEM PUSH Network, founded as an NSF INCLUDES Alliance, is working to leverage the power of pre-college STEM programs (PCSPs) to strengthen our nation's STEM workforce through targeted work on the high-school-to-college admission transition point. Together with its partners, STEM PUSH seeks to create systemic change in higher education admissions. Learn more about the STEM PUSH Network: https://stempushnetwork.org/
