Building a strong community where girls and young women in FIRST can connect, grow, lead, and see themselves in STEM.
Colorado FIRST Women in STEM supports students from preschool through high school with opportunities to build confidence, form lasting connections, and learn from accomplished women working in STEM careers.
Colorado FIRST Women in STEM (CFWS) is a dedicated community for girls and young women participating in FIRST programs from preschool through high school.
Through in-person, virtual, and regional opportunities, CFWS helps students build confidence, create meaningful connections, and support one another as they explore STEM.
The goal is not only to encourage participation in robotics, but also to help young women see themselves as future engineers, scientists, technologists, innovators, and leaders.
When students meet women succeeding in technical and leadership roles, STEM careers become more visible, relatable, and achievable.
CFWS helps create those connections while also giving students a supportive peer community within FIRST.
CFWS is designed to support girls and young women participating across the full progression of FIRST programs.
Whether you are a student, mentor, educator, professional, or organization interested in supporting girls in STEM, there are opportunities to get involved.
Join Colorado FIRST Women in STEM for upcoming events, workshops, networking opportunities, and activities designed to connect and inspire students across Colorado.
Create connections, share your experience, support events, and help inspire the next generation.
