IWITTS helps educators nationwide close the gender gap for women and girls in male-dominated careers -- such as technology, the trades and law enforcement. We also work with employers to assist them in integrating women successfully into their male-dominated workplace. In particular, we have worked extensively with law enforcement agencies.
