Want To Help Cleveland? Good, we could use your help.
We are a volunteer group that contribute our talents by working with our community to improve local government and through relationships and civic technology projects.
We do a lot of things together, but our main activity is our Meeting / Hack Night, usually held on the first Wednesday every month. This meeting is for those who want to:
- presentations from community members sharing a tech skill or how local government works.
- start a new project, or find one to join (all backgrounds welcome!)
- bounce ideas and get help from tech and gov experts
- learn about open data, civic technology (technology for the public good) and open government
What is Civic Hacking? Here's an introduction by Code for America
