SIAMS, Surely I Am My SIster

About this Organization

SIAMS aims to continue our efforts to expose high school senior girls and college freshman girls on campus to their aspiring professions. We provide professional development and career readiness resources to marginalized high school seniors and college freshmen. SIAMS focuses on preparing these young women to transition from education to professional careers by providing mentorship and skill-building opportunities. We aim to remove barriers to success, particularly for first-generation college students, empowering them to graduate and become future leaders. Our mentorship model allows the girls to develop an understanding of their career choices and explore options in the field. This year they will have access to our entire network of mentors. All SIAMS mentors have bachelor's degrees. 85% of our mentors have Master's degrees and several hold Professional and Doctoral degrees. 70% of our mentors have their own businesses in addition to their professional careers.
