OUR STORY

Code/Interactive (C/I, formerly Camp/Interactive) was founded in 2001 in the Bronx with the goal of breaking the poverty cycle of inner-city youth by providing positive leadership role models, participation in empowering outdoor leadership experiences, and access to technology training.

Since 2012, Code/Interactive expanded its mission to train educators and build inclusive computer science programs. C/I partners with nationally recognized curriculum providers like Code.org, Exploring Computer Science, and ScratchEd to build partnerships, train educators, and scale programs with equitable and inclusive strategies. Our staff is a team of former educators who envision a future in which all students have access to computer science education with a focus on broadening participation among traditionally underrepresented students. We still work with dozens of schools in the Bronx, but we have also trained teachers and built programs throughout New York and in six other states.
