Amplifying the Alliance to Catalyze Change for Equity in STEM Success (ACCESS+)

Amplifying the Alliance to Catalyze Change for Equity in STEM Success (ACCESS+) seeks to accelerate the awareness, adoption, and adaptation of NSF ADVANCE evidence-based; gender-related; diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, practices, and programs within and across STEM professional societies. The goal of ACCESS+ is to prepare and support motivated cohorts of STEM professional society change leaders who serve as DEI “Boundary Spanners.” DEI Boundary Spanners are individuals who facilitate connection(s) between organizations by finding, translating, and diffusing DEI information and resources for mutual benefit; working to support STEM DEI reform; and “weaving” together stakeholders and partners towards collective DEI goals.
