Black Lives Matter. We mourn the loss of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and many others who have lost their lives as a result of systematic racism, both now and in the past. We stand in solidarity with those who are demanding change. And we know that change begins from within. At the Institute we are committed to making science accessible to diverse communities, and we live that value through the STEM programming we provide to more than 30,000 students annually in Flint, Pontiac, Detroit, and beyond. And we recognize there is much more to be done on the path to racial equity. The Institute and our educators are dedicated to listening and learning as we strive to be the best partner possible to all those we serve, their families, our members and guests, and our community.
