Roll Up Your Sleeves, Get Involved, and Get Civic-Hacking | NATIONAL DAY OF CIVIC HACKING |The White House | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
This summer, citizens in cities across the Nation will join together to improve their communities and governments as part of the National Day of Civic Hacking.

 

Civic Hacking Day is an opportunity for software developers, technologists, and entrepreneurs to unleash their can-do American spirit by collaboratively harnessing publicly-released data and code to create innovative solutions for problems that affect Americans.  

 

While civic hacking communities have long worked to improve our country and the world, this summer will mark the first time local developers from across the Nation unite around the shared mission of addressing and solving challenges relevant to OUR blocks, OUR neighborhoods, OUR cities, OUR states, and OUR country. 

 

National Day of Civic Hacking will provide citizens an opportunity to do what is most quintessentially American: roll up our sleeves, get involved and work together to improve our society.
