Developing holistic and equitable coding programs doesn’t have to be hard—Girls Who Code has your back! Join Emily Ong, Director of Community Partnerships & Outreach, and Valerie Tomici, Manager of Community Partnerships & Outreach, at Girls Who Code to gain the tools you need to easily bring fun and digestible coding curricula to your community—whether you’re a complete beginner or a resident expert!

By the end of the session, you’ll understand how to incorporate essential community-building activities that encourage positive social emotional development, build a supportive network of peers and diverse role models for students, and connect coding to impact. You’ll walk away with tangible tips and strategies you can implement right away and begin a drafted plan for developing (or enhancing) the STEM initiatives in your own community!
