Coding Justice is a DC Pro Bono Week collaboration event between social-justice nonprofits and the tech world, in partnership with Washington Council of Lawyers, DC Legal Hackers, The Public Defender Service for the District of Columbia, and Dechert LLP. Members of the legal community will join tech-savvy volunteers to explore tech solutions to legal problems. This year, we’ll discuss the issues surrounding re-entry and then consider how to solve them using technology. We are looking for volunteers from both the legal community and the tech world: lawyers from all sectors are welcome. In particular, we’re looking for tech volunteers with computer science or civic hacking experience in the following areas: Design thinking Data management Technology solutions Technical design A light dinner will be provided to nourish our creative problem solving. Participants in the event will help brainstorm and prototype the content design of information meant to help formerly incarcerated people transition back into their communities.
