An inclusive robotics program designed to make STEM education accessible to students of all abilities through collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving.
Unified Robotics is an inclusive STEM education program that brings together students with and without intellectual and developmental disabilties to design, build, and program robots. This hands-on program fosters teamwork, technical skills, and inclusion, allowing students to develop confidence and lasting friendships while engaging in STEM.
Unified Robotics teaches essential STEM and social skills through inclusive robotics practices and competitions, offering students the chance to collaborate and problem-solve as part of a team.
Students learn to design, program, and build robots using simple but robust robotics kits, which help develop problem-solving skills.
Participants work in mixed-ability teams, enhancing their teamwork, social, and communication skills.
By 2026, we aim to bring Unified Robotics to over 300 schools across Washington, expanding inclusive education and STEM opportunities for students of all abilities.
