Inspire. Nurture. Grow.

S.T.E.A.M. H.I.T.S. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics – Hidden In Sound) is a new Tacoma-based nonprofit dedicated to creating safe, engaging, and affordable enrichment opportunities for youth.

With an unclear future for our local after-school programs from the announcement of the loss of Beyond the Bell, many families are facing fewer opportunities for their children to explore creativity, build friendships, and develop real-world skills. S.T.E.A.M. H.I.T.S. was created to help fill that gap. The idea for S.T.E.A.M. H.I.T.S. came from the need for many students being on a waiting list or not even getting into after school programs.

Through hands-on activities, tabletop roleplaying games, music, art, engineering challenges, ecology projects, entrepreneurship experiences, and social-emotional learning, we help young people discover their strengths while building confidence, collaboration, and problem-solving skills.

Together, we can inspire the next generation of makers, creators, leaders, and innovators.
