ABOUT ELSO
ELSO (Experience Life Science Outdoors) was founded in 2015 by two Black women to provide culturally relevant education and leadership development opportunities that connect Youth of Color with life science and outdoor learning experiences. ELSO's mission is to teach science and nature-based education through a lens that centers the lived experiences, stories, and ways of knowing of Black and Brown communities.
ELSO works to reduce barriers in STEAMED (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math, Environment, and Design) education and careers while fostering belonging within natural and built environments. Through a multicultural and environmental justice-focused approach, ELSO is demonstrating a model for STEAMED education led by People of Color.
About Studio Justice
Studio Justice is ELSO's Youth Design Program serving youth ages 14-20. The program empowers young people to use design as a tool for racial, social, economic, and environmental justice. Participants explore careers within architecture, engineering, construction, design, and other green-sector professions while learning about health equity, public spaces, and community development.
To eliminate financial barriers, participants receive scholarship stipends rather than paying program fees.
