Hack the Hood: Digital Inclusion Meets Small Business
October 2015
“I didn’t know that
people like me could
work in tech.
And now, I could be a
coder.”
- --Norma Soto,
Summer 2015 Hack the Hood program participant
Hack the Hood introduces low-income youth
of color to careers in technology.
We teach them web development & basic
coding skills, which they practice by building
web sites for local organizations.
Our young people go from feeling like
consumers of tech to producers of tech--and
start to see futures they never imagined.
Say
Something
Bold
And then say something smart
Through hands-on training, we empower
young people to see themselves in tech
Say
Something
Bold
And then say something smart
They learn tech & workplace skills that
make tech careers feel possible
This summer,
we ran 4 boot camps
in East Palo Alto,
Richmond,
and Oakland.
We served 100 youth
ages 16-21
Since 2014, we’ve worked with more than 250
youth in the Bay area
Young people visited tech companies, explored
careers, and built web sites for local organizations
Youth build small business web sites & develop client
management, tech & coding skills
Client sites include The V List, http://www.thevlist.net/
The Man Book, http://themanbook.org/
The Marsh Clinics, http://www.themarshclinics.com/
1.  break up preso
sections with pictures
Youth go from being consumers
of tech to producers of tech
The experience can be
transformational
Norma was one of the best coders in her
group; she wants to study CS now
More words
Mentoring, site
visits, skills clinics
are core to the
program
Summer 2015 visit to Yahoo!
Speakers at VSCO
Volunteers teach tech clinics,
mentor & facilitate workshops
“If more youth are
involved, they will be
able to build websites
and also get into the tech
industry by creating
personal connections
with people who are
already working in the
tech industry”
-Teresa , 2015 youth
instructor, 2014
participant
We fill a place in the pipeline
that’s essential
Because we focus on low-income youth,
and those who are not always on college
track, we transform the experience of many
young people—and change the trajectory of
what they do.
