Introducing the Newest Board of Directors
The Mobile Laboratory Coalition (MLC) is a global community of educators and outreach professionals committed to expanding access to hands-on STEM learning experiences. Through collaboration, resource sharing and creative educational programming, MLC empowers learners of all ages to explore STEM in meaningful ways.
Supporting this mission is the MLC Board of Directors (BOD), a dedicated group of leaders who help shape the organization’s strategic direction and long-term vision. Through active engagement, collaborative leadership and volunteer service, the Board works to strengthen the Coalition, support its members and advance the impact of mobile STEM education.
