About Austin Urban Community Coalition

STEAM Kids is a vibrant educational initiative designed to engage children in the multifaceted realms of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM), with a special emphasis on robotics. Through our innovative curriculum, children embark on immersive learning experiences that combine hands-on experimentation, creative expression, and problem-solving challenges. 

In our robotics programs, children delve into the exciting world of automation, coding, and engineering, as they design, build, and program their own robots. They learn fundamental concepts in robotics and computer science while honing their teamwork and communication skills through collaborative projects and competitions. 

Through our STEAM Kids program, we believe in nurturing a love for learning and exploration from an early age, instilling in children the confidence and skills they need to succeed in an ever-evolving world. Our dynamic approach to STEAM education empowers young minds to think critically, innovate boldly, and embrace the limitless possibilities of the future.

Our youth urban gardening program is a hands-on initiative aimed at teaching young individuals about the importance of sustainable food production, environmental stewardship, and community engagement. Through engaging workshops, practical demonstrations, and interactive gardening activities, participants learn the fundamentals of gardening, from seed to harvest.

In this program, youth not only cultivate fresh fruits and vegetables but also cultivate valuable life skills such as teamwork, responsibility, and problem-solving. They gain an understanding of the interconnectedness between food, health, and the environment while experiencing the satisfaction of growing their own food in an urban setting.

Beyond gardening skills, our program fosters a sense of ownership and pride in local green spaces, instilling in youth a deeper appreciation for their community and the natural world. Through their involvement in urban gardening, participants become empowered agents of positive change, contributing to a more sustainable and resilient future for themselves and their neighborhoods.
