US Sailing has released the 2022 Reach Initiative Impact Report to assess the mission of US Sailing’s Reach program. Since the inception of Reach in 2012, US Sailing’s STEM Education Initiative has sought to impact youth across the country.
Reach participants learn Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) concepts using sailing as an educational platform. As the Reach Initiative enters its 11th year, US Sailing seeks to continue expanding the program impact.
Reach grants in 2022 continued to support programs that are just beginning to implement STEM or starting a new STEM program within their existing offerings. This impact report focuses on the 2022 grant recipients.
These 10 programs aimed to engage their community on a new level through their STEM programming using the Reach curriculum and resources available online. Staff from these organizations enrolled in the online Reach Educator Course to learn new techniques for offering hands-on lessons to their sailors while incorporating a variety of STEM concepts.
