AIA Partners to Advance Educational Pathways for Girls

Washington, D.C. -- The American Institute of Architects (AIA) and The National Girls Collaborative (NGC) are joining forces to build new pathways for girls to achieve educational goals that prepare them for future careers such as architecture.

“AIA is one of the first professional associations to partner with The National Girls Collaborative to increase exposure to a profession,” said Del L. Ruff, senior director of workforce and K-12 Initiatives at the AIA. “We believe our K-12 partnerships need to be intentional and aid in ensuring the future of the architecture profession. The National Girls Collaborative is one of those partners that will aid in increasing our reach for all students.”
