Since 2021, First Book and General Motors (GM) have worked together to increase access to STEM-focused resources and events across the First Book Network. We share a commitment to diversity in STEM and strive to increase access to STEM books with diverse characters, and engage GM employees across a variety of STEM careers by sharing their own STEM journeys. GM’s goals vary across two social impact pillars, Transportation and STEM Education. The partnership with First Book falls under STEM education, which has three objectives: Increase STEM literacy with a focus on foundational reading, math and science skills; Increase equitable access to STEM resources and professional development that accelerate classroom success; Increase individuals participating and succeeding in career and technical education.
