Providence Swedish Seattle Storm Academy

Join the Seattle Storm, Providence Swedish and Rise Above for this special event focused on empowering girls and nonbinary students to explore their future. We’ll use fun group activities to discover what our personal strengths and skills are, learn about teamwork, and explore our leadership power. Then, through hands-on activities led by doctors, nurses, and medical providers, we’ll learn about different areas of medicine and healthcare you can work in. The day will end with a special guest from the Seattle Storm front office who will talk about their experience as a woman in leadership, what it’s like to work in sports, and more.
Extra perks! This event includes lunch and snacks, a special event t-shirt, special giveaways, and 2 tickets to a 2025 Storm game for each student!
