About Black Girls CODE New York Chapter

Black girls all over the world are changing the face of technology. we are training 1 million girls by 2040 to lead, innovate and create in science, tech, engineering and math.

We build pathways for young women of color to embrace the current tech marketplace as builders and creators by introducing them to skills in computer programming and technology.

Radical action is needed if we are to close the opportunity gap for Black women and girls. We lead a global movement to establish equal representation in the tech sector. Black Girls CODE is devoted to showing the world that Black girls can code and do so much more. Together, we are creating stronger economies and more equitable societies—ultimately realizing the true potential of democracy through diversity and inclusion.

NYC participants come from a wide variety of backgrounds. While most workshops take place in Manhattan, we work diligently to find partners in the other boroughs to give everyone an opportunity to attend. Parents bring daughters from New Jersey and Upstate New York, and even from as far away as Maryland.
