Since 2015 we've introduced more than 2,300 young people in Metro Atlanta to computer coding and 21st Century Skills. Those young people have written over 550,000 lines of code and completed hundreds of projects. We've worked with 25 organizations and schools, and directly with families. We do this in order to help close the opportunity gap and diversify tomorrow's technology workforce.
