Become a sponsor to Civic Hacker
Civic Hacker's big, hairy, audacious mission is to use software, policy, and data to empower activists and engineer liberation. The problem set spans multiple fields of study and lived experiences. The specific needs of oppressed groups usually range from allyship between privileged groups and vulnerable communities to sustainable opportunities to make policy-level changes.
Civic Hacker develops technology for purpose-driven organizations like your favorite community groups and social enterprises.
