CS First is a pilot program in South Carolina introducing students to CS in a social, collaborative after-school environment. The focus is on raising awareness and helping students understand their potential in the field.

Engage CS Edu will provide curriculum resources for introductory CS1/CS2 courses that are engaging to both women and men.
