Progressive Hack Night

April 12, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Free

The ProgCode community hack night is now transitioning to be Progressive Hack Night!

The Progressive Hack Night is having bi-weekly hacknights  every Wednesday at 6pm. These initial hack nights will be experimental to see how best to conduct future community hack nights.

We aim for this to be a regular meeting place for technologists who want to do good. An intersection point of activism and technology, wherein we can meet to code on projects, setup code mentoring stations, or just talk about the issues that are most important to us.

Participants will be instructed to create or join a breakout group. Breakout groups can take any form: it can be a working group for projects, or discussion groups for discussions.

There are two types of break-out groups

1. Discussion Groups: Groups centered on learning new things, discussing issues, building networks, and strategizing. This can also be a place where organizations can figure their technical needs and how they’re going to solve their problems. Be sure to be clear on what you want to accomplish!

Announce a discussion group:

2. Working Groups: do you have a project? Working groups are breakouts focused on either onboarding, training, or just having a team setup on collectively coding for your awesome project! Be sure to be clear on what you want to accomplish!
