The Partnerships for Informal Science Education in the Community (PISEC) program facilitates meaningful connections between university volunteers and K-12 students through engaging and hands-on afterschool science activities. PISEC aims to help students form strong science identities through empowering them to explore activities that interest them at their own pace in an informal, playful, and welcoming environment. In the middle school program, volunteers meet with the same after school science club ten times each semester, which allows them to form meaningful connections with the students and teachers. We recently created a new atmospheric and environmental chemistry curriculum for the PISEC program, and document its impact on youth science identity through student work, surveys, and interviews.
