Join Our Partnership with Girls Who Code!

Join Our Partnership with Girls Who Code!

The CT State Library has partnered with Girls Who Code to bring free computer science opportunities to girls and nonbinary students across our communities and would love for your school or library to host a Club! 

Join the CT State Library and our Girls Who Code Community Partner Manager Michaela Burger to learn more about the program and resources available to partners (like a facilitator toolkit and meeting guides) in this deep dive demonstration.

Girls Who Code Clubs are free, flexible programs for 3rd-12th grade students to learn how to make a positive impact on the world through computer science. When you sign up to start an in-person or virtual Club, you’ll gain access to loads of free resources and training, plus, NO coding experience required.

And there are extra benefits for Clubs affiliated with Community Partners, like the CT State Library! If you already have a Club, it’s not too late to affiliate with the CT State Library!
