We are looking for a technical person to help us develop an app for youth. The volunteer will first act as an advisor and later support the production of the app.

We had discovered that students ages 14 to 18+ max 25( high school and university) or more are less likely to participate in teacher-led social innovation projects using design thinking. However they are interested in contributing to solving community issues using an independent, technology guided approach and working with peers.

We want to create an app for youth who will use design thinking to build a social innovation to address problems in their own communities. The app will provide practical steps they can take in order to address these problems and build social innovation in teams or individually.

APPLICATION LINK

ABOUT BRAVEN & THE PROBLEM YOU’D HELP SOLVE
Only 25% of low-income or first-generation college students graduate and attain a strong job. At the same time, local companies struggle to hire and retain local, diverse talent. Braven seeks to close this talent gap by partnering with colleges and companies to equip underrepresented young people with the skills, networks, and experiences they need to succeed professionally.

BRAVEN’S RESULTS TO DATE
Before and amid the pandemic, Braven Fellows outpace the national average for strong job attainment; within six months of graduation, 58% of Fellows in the Class of 2020 secured quality full-time jobs worthy of their bachelor’s degree or enrolled in graduate school compared to 41% of all students and 39% of students from similar backgrounds. In addition, 95% of our Fellows are persisting in or have graduated from college, and 75% of Braven college graduates have at least one internship during college, compared with 68% of all college graduates.

93% of volunteers have said this was the most rewarding volunteer experience they’ve ever been a part of, and 99% say the program helped them develop and practice skills that apply directly to their job and leadership growth.

DataEthics4All’s STEAM in AI Research & Build College Prep Program matches a high school student with a Professional/ College student for 1:1 Experiential Learning & Career Mentoring in Data Science, AI & STEAM that they’d perhaps pursue as a career.

The program is designed for students thinking about STEAM careers such as Medicine or Engineering but also for careers in Business, Arts, Music, History, Physiology, Social Sciences, Policy and more because technology is going to intersect with all of those fields even more so in the future.

We’ve designed this Program to equip students with the skills they need for jobs that don’t exist today whether or not they consider themselves as Math or Coding Champions.

This is a great opportunity for Professionals/ College students to sign up as a Mentor and help high school students learn about new nonlinear STEAM careers, get practical experience through a hands-on project in research, work with datasets or build an application, boost their profile for college applications and create Impact.

DataEthics4All is on a mission to break barriers of entry in Tech for Girls, People of Color and the economically disadvantaged and offers need based scholarships so students can take advantage of the program 100% free.

We're helping high school students explore STEAM and AI Career Pathways to help build an equitable, diverse and inclusive future workforce with Ethics 1st Tech Champions.

Mentors will meet their mentee 10 times over the duration of 6-10 months once every 3-4 weeks for 1 hour to help guide them with the next steps on their project.

Be a classroom mentor!
Work weekly in a high school classroom (1.5 hour class/week) helping students that need extra support.

For some students, individual attention is the difference between success and failure. They may lack expected background skills or have difficulty understanding new concepts. They may have limited fluency in English and require additional explanations.

For the student, failure in required classes means repeating the class in future years along with all other classes. Failure also re-enforces negative personal feelings school disengagement, increasing the likelihood of dropping out.

Our mentors are invited to work in classrooms in multiple high schools, 9th - 12th grade, in subjects like History, English, Math and English Language Development. Mentors volunteer in-person. Classes are during school hours. Volunteers are expected to commit to at least one semester but considerations are made for volunteers that start late in the semester.
