We are excited to announce that our redesigned website went live at the end of last week! While creating the content for the website, our Founder and Executive Director, Ms. Tokiwa T. Smith, was intentional about including elements of storytelling, clearly communicating our work, and showing individuals and organizations how they can engage with us.

Thank you to our former board member, Shay Johnson of ShaCa Gurus Website Solutions, for designing a visually appealing site with a sleek, modern look.

Each teen will leave with their own concept for a STEM comic strip. 🎨

📅 Date: Saturday, October 3, 2026
🕚 Time: 11:00 am to 1:00 pm

🔬 It's Forensic Science Week! (September 20–26)

This week we celebrate the scientists who use evidence to find the truth, and the young people who could be next. 🔍

Forensic scientists use biology, chemistry, physics, and computer science to help solve crimes, identify victims, and clear people who were wrongly accused. ⚖️

Career paths include:

🧬 DNA analysis

🧪 Toxicology

💻 Digital forensics

🦴 Forensic anthropology

📸 Crime scene investigation
..and more!

Meet some of the scientists who shaped the field:

🔹 Edmond Locard: "Every contact leaves a trace."

🔹 Frances Glessner Lee: The "Mother of Forensic Science"

🔹 Sir Alec Jeffreys: Invented DNA fingerprinting

🔹 Dr. Henry C. Lee: World-renowned crime scene expert

🔹 Dr. Bennet Omalu: Discovered CTE in NFL players

🔹 Cleveland Miles: Division Director of Forensic Sciences at the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and a mentor to many forensic scientists of color

You can support our work to inspire the next generation of forensic scientists and other STEM professionals by making a contribution today to our “Donate Your Lunch Money” Individual Donor campaign via our website https://semsuccess.org/ or the link in our bio.
