One new lab will be located in their newly renovated Community Center located at 80 Pitt Street in Manhattan, and the other new lab will be sited within one of their longest-standing Brooklyn hubs, the Bushwick-Hylan Community Center. Together, these labs will increase tech equity for youths from these low-income communities, bringing high-quality, inquiry-led STEM education to an estimated 215 youths each year. Grand Street Settlement provides comprehensive educational programs and social services to over 15,000 people of all ages residing in high-need neighborhoods on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, and in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg and Bushwick neighborhoods.
