Mission

The mission of the Salvadori Center is to educate the next generation of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art/Architecture, and Math (STEAM) leaders! For more than 40 years, Salvadori has provided STEAM-based in-school residencies and after-school programs for tens of thousands of students. At the heart of Salvadori’s mission is the call to serve students from economically disadvantaged communities and to remove all obstacles to learning. We work in public schools, homeless shelters, and public housing community centers and help close the achievement gap by offering a hands-on STEAM curriculum that supports academic growth for all students - homeless, English language learners, recent immigrants, and those with developmental and emotional disabilities.
