Join Code for Miami for the 4th annual National Day of Civic Hacking, and help us #HackForChange!

On June 4, thousands of people from across the United States will come together for National Day of Civic Hacking.

The event will bring together urbanists, civic hackers, government staff, developers, designers, community organizers and anyone with the passion to make our city better.

We will collaboratively build new solutions using publicly-released data, technology, and design processes to improve our communities and the governments that serve them.

Anyone can participate; you don’t have to be an expert in technology, you just have to care about your neighborhood and community.
