Save the date! Every month throughout 2021 we’ll be hosting a Brigade Project Standup, where we’ll hear in-depth project updates from 2-3 Brigade project teams, and then will welcome anybody in attendance to share updates on their own projects.
All events are at 4pm PT / 7pm ET, on the second Wednesday, unless otherwise noted. This post will be updated with specific topics in advance of standups, and with links to notes and recordings following each standup.
Are you interested in participating?
Each month, 2-3 project teams give 10-15 minute presentations (most months are “general interest,” every third month is a “themed” standup). If you’re interested in signing up to be a featured project, get in touch with Will Pfeffer on Slack or at wpfeffer@codeforamerica.org.
Are you interested in giving a quick update on your project, as you might at a more traditional standup? Just show up! At each event we’ll leave time for 5-minute updates on whatever project you’re working on.
