Why Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work?

When it began, Take Our Daughters to Work Day was a revolutionary way to encourage adolescent girls' interest and achievement in math and science. Over the years it expanded their understanding of career opportunities and encouraged equal opportunities for women in the workplace.

The goal in expanding the program to Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day is to invite boys and girls to examine together the issues they both will confront in the workplace, to explore their potential, and to realize that each other's goals are achievable. We would like participants to leave with ideas and impressions that will successfully guide them in the changing workplace culture.
