2018 She Code Connect Conference: Recruiting and Retaining Girls in Computer Science Education

Dear Friends,

You are cordially invited to attend the She Code Connect™ Conference on Recruiting and Retaining Girls in Computer Science with special guest speaker Malavika Vivek.

Malavika  is the cofounder of Girls Make Apps, a U.S.-based initiative which she launched in 2016 as a junior in high school. One of the most impressive young entrepreneurs in the tech industry today, Malavika has been honored as a Stanford University #include fellow for her efforts to bridge the diversity gap in tech. You won't want to miss her talk: Change the world, not the women.

We'll have breakfast and a robust conversation around recruiting and retaining girls in computer science education, including a panel of local luminaries to share their thoughts about the work we are doing here in San Antonio to improve diversity. Educators, teachers, administrators, students, parents and industry folks are all invited to attend.

She Code Connect is a program of Youth Code Jam. This breakfast is a true community effort with partners including Rackspace, Palo Alto College, 80|20 Foundation,  Best Buy Foundation,  H-E-B, the STEM Council and the SA/Bexar County STEM/STEAM Learning Ecosystem.
