In that it is a organization that impact the community through education and mentor ship to youth and college students . It brings hope to the community through fellowship and family that we can grow as a community through NSBE . I constantly tell my peers if they have children and college students in and/or interested in STEM to connect with Nsbe either at the NSBE Jr , collegian and professional chapter . Everyone I refer as always said it has been beneficial ! • NSBE is such a great community to be a part of and it’s an inspiration to see so many PoC making strides in STEM.
