Unexpected and interdisciplinary collaboration can lead to powerful social change. The Dress for Success Sacramento EmpowerHer Hack provides an opportunity to share stories, iterate ideas, and connect tech, design, and re-entry.  Working closely with formerly incarcerated women, re-entry partners, and other support organizations we will hack solutions to the most pressing issues that lead to incarceration.  More importantly, we want to focus on post incarceration support solutions that empower, promote, and position women and girls for economic self-sufficiency. We want to showcase how design thinking, innovation, and technology can be used to bring people together to empower women and girls for a successful future.
