It impacts the world we live in and everyday we are exposed to the importance of design. Inclusion and diversity in design is critical, as diversity provides broader ideas, understanding, and, ultimately, results in better decisions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Reach Out<\/em> is an annual outreach initiative led by College of Design staff at the Design Lab for K-12 Education. This program aims to expand the influence of design to build a more diverse student body at the College of Design, and to promote design as a future sustainable career path. This program consists of educational design programming for school teachers and students from underserved and underrepresented communities in North Carolina, and includes after school programming and field trip opportunities to expose students and teachers to the benefits of design thinking and design career paths.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<aside class=\"wp-block-ncst-fact ncst-aside-container\">\n  <div class=\"ncst-aside-contents\">\n    <a \n    class=\"ncst-fact has-red-400-text-color alignright wp-block-ncst-fact\"\n    href=\"mailto:designlab_k12@ncsu.edu\"\n          >\n      <span class=\"ncst-icon\">\n      <svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n<path d=\"M18.4893 5.5683V14.1192H7.8482L6.18555 16.0191V17.1117H16.589L21.007 22.0997V17.1117H23.9999V5.5683H18.4893Z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/>\n<path d=\"M7.45828 13.4438H17.8617V1.90033H0V13.4438H2.99297V18.4317L7.45828 13.4438ZM13.3486 6.12799C13.6399 6.12789 13.9247 6.21419 14.167 6.37597C14.4092 6.53775 14.5981 6.76774 14.7096 7.03685C14.8212 7.30597 14.8504 7.60211 14.7936 7.88784C14.7369 8.17357 14.5966 8.43605 14.3907 8.64207C14.1847 8.84809 13.9223 8.98841 13.6366 9.04528C13.3509 9.10214 13.0547 9.073 12.7855 8.96155C12.5164 8.85009 12.2864 8.66131 12.1245 8.4191C11.9626 8.17688 11.8762 7.89211 11.8762 7.6008C11.8762 7.21027 12.0314 6.83572 12.3075 6.55953C12.5836 6.28334 12.9581 6.12811 13.3486 6.12799ZM8.93062 6.12799C9.22194 6.12789 9.50674 6.21419 9.749 6.37597C9.99127 6.53775 10.1801 6.76774 10.2917 7.03685C10.4032 7.30597 10.4324 7.60211 10.3757 7.88784C10.3189 8.17357 10.1787 8.43605 9.97269 8.64207C9.76674 8.84809 9.50431 8.98841 9.2186 9.04528C8.93289 9.10214 8.63673 9.073 8.36758 8.96155C8.09843 8.85009 7.86838 8.66131 7.70653 8.4191C7.54467 8.17688 7.45828 7.89211 7.45828 7.6008C7.45828 7.21027 7.61339 6.83572 7.88949 6.55953C8.1656 6.28334 8.54009 6.12811 8.93062 6.12799ZM4.46531 6.12799C4.75663 6.12789 5.04143 6.21419 5.28369 6.37597C5.52596 6.53775 5.7148 6.76774 5.82635 7.03685C5.93789 7.30597 5.96713 7.60211 5.91035 7.88784C5.85357 8.17357 5.71334 8.43605 5.50738 8.64207C5.30142 8.84809 5.039 8.98841 4.75328 9.04528C4.46757 9.10214 4.17142 9.073 3.90227 8.96155C3.63312 8.85009 3.40307 8.66131 3.24121 8.4191C3.07936 8.17688 2.99297 7.89211 2.99297 7.6008C2.99297 7.21027 3.14808 6.83572 3.42418 6.55953C3.70028 6.28334 4.07478 6.12811 4.46531 6.12799Z\" fill=\"currentColor\"\/>\n<\/svg>\n\n    <\/span>\n              <h2 class=\"fact__heading\">Got Questions?<\/h2>\n            <p class=\"fact__support\">\n              Email us at:\n          <\/p>\n        <p class=\"fact__cta\">\n      <span class=\"text\">designlab_k12@ncsu.edu<\/span><span class=\"arrow-indicator\"><svg class=\"wolficon wolficon-arrow-right-bold\" role=\"img\"  aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<use xlink:href=\"#wolficon-arrow-right-bold\">\n\t\t<\/svg><\/span>\n    <\/p>\n    <\/a>\n  <\/div>\n<\/aside>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Interested in being a part of our <em>Reach Out <\/em>initiative?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are you an educator in a public school that receives Title I funding?&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are you an educator in a school located in a Tier 1 or Tier 2 NC County based on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commerce.nc.gov\/grants-incentives\/county-distress-rankings-tiers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2024 NC County Distress Rankings<\/a>?&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are you an educator who works predominantly with students from cultural or ethnic backgrounds underrepresented in design and who might be interested in the field of design?&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you answered yes to any of the above questions, and you are interested in hearing more about College of Design outreach and engagement activities, please contact the Design Lab staff at <a href=\"mailto:designlab_k12@ncsu.edu\">designlab_k12@ncsu.edu<\/a>.
