Code for Charlottesville

Because Charlottesville is a Civic Tech City

Code for Charlottesville brings together coders, designers, data analysts, researchers, and community partners to work on projects with local nonprofits and governmental agencies.

Our volunteers are Charlottesville residents who work for local companies, residents who work remotely for other companies, people who live elsewhere who connect with us using slack and zoom, and UVA and PVCC students. We provide opportunities for community members and students to meet and get to know each other while working on meaningful projects together.

One of our guiding principles is that the tech team should work within the community we serve, and we work to meet the real needs of that community.
