Our vision is that as a result of the work we do, women in STEM will be:

• Compensated fairly and without discrimination;
• Advanced equitably and without bias;
• Respected and recognized for their scientific achievements;
• Exposed to successful role models in leadership positions; and
• Able to achieve optimum work/life integration.
