Abstract	A low percentage of young women choose to pursue studies in science and mathematics although science and technology continue to dominate change and drive social and economic trends. This guide, compiled by the Nova Scotia Women's Directorate, is a national inventory of 92 programs in Canada designed to teach science and mathematics to girls and young women. Part A, Program Descriptions, contains brief descriptions of each program, organized into four categories--schools, postsecondary, community based, and other resources--and coded as to geographical location. Part B, Program Details, presents additional information about each program: name, location, description, features, resource materials used, resource materials produced, evaluation reports, and contact information. No assessment or evaluation of the programs is included by the authors. (MKR)
