LILRC Webinar: Girls Who Code – Cost Free Library Curriculum and Programs

April 17 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EDT

Girls Who Code is on a mission to close the gender gap in technology – and we are on track to do so by 2030! We have reached over 500 million people, served over 500,000 girls through our programming, and 50% of our participants are from historically underrepresented groups.

In collaboration with LILRC, we’re providing tools that make coding accessible to all youth-facing professionals – no prior coding experience necessary! We do this through our 100% free programming and resources available to all educators, librarians, and volunteers. During this presentation, we will introduce our free Clubs Program and our Summer Programs. We’ll engage participants in a programmatic coding tutorial to offer a deep dive into our program content as well as our educational philosophy. We’ll discuss the ways that we can directly support communities in growing their clubs, building their networks, and engaging with students at all levels of coding.

Presented by: Michaela Burger, Senior Associate, Community Partnerships & Outreach, Girls Who Code
