Girls Who Code Clubs are meant for girls to join our sisterhood of supportive peers and rolemodels and use Computer Science to change the world. When you join a Club, you will be able to learn from fun and simple online coding tutorials, build community through interactive activities, and learn about inspiring role models. You then work in teams to design and build a Girls Who Code Project that solves real world problems you care about through code! Access to a laptop computer is essential for this series. Please contact Melissa Giffen (MBarbour@sandiego.gov) if you want to join the club but do not have a laptop to use.
