Along with Program Manager Laura George, Nalini runs the STEM Community Alliance Program, which connects scientists to youth-in-custody (YIC). While it is the law that all YIC have access to education, there was no doubt in Nalini’s mind that more needed to be done to give these young people better opportunities. To her, a creative connection to science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) could be the key to a brighter future. • This resource also contains an interview with Nalini and Laura. If you or your students have a question for them, you can submit it online – go to the article using the Futurum link below and scroll to the bottom of the page. Nalini or Laura will reply! • The activity sheet provides ‘talking points’ (based on Bloom’s Taxonomy) to prompt students to reflect on Nalini’s research, and tasks them to research YIC education provision in their area.
