  • 2025-Oct-09 NH-DI Press Kit
    New Hampshire’s most creative playground is where students develop the skills needed to drive innovative solutions to complex, STEAM or service learning Challenges – and have fun. Far more than a competition, Destination Imagination (DI) is a non-profit that empowers young people to develop skills crucial for a fast-changing workplace: creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, and problem-solving. These flexible life-long skills are vital in every field.
    Covers: program statistics, quick overview, benefits of the program.
