Our Mission
Established in 2013, Mental Fitness STEAM Academy is nonprofit organization which aims to provide students, parents and the community with authentic, challenging and engaging enrichment with a S.T.E.A.M. focus. Our vision is to ensure that all children in grades 1 through 12 have access to high-quality computer technology and educational resources so that they are better prepared for school, college, and the workforce.
Since inception, Mental Fitness has been dedicated to advancing the academic, social and career opportunities of youth throughout the Atlanta Metropolitan area by providing them, and their families, with STEM enrichment, college prep assistance, career training, mentorship and counseling. We achieve this by holding after-school programs, in-school field trips, and summer enrichment camps. Mental Fitness strives to connect the work of our three primary streams of programming - after-school, in-school workshops, and summer STEM camps - to the learning that is done during the school hours. Our efforts are focused on exposing students to the overall knowledge of STEM careers and STEM concepts.
