Brigade members have been at the front lines for rapid response initiatives such as Hurricane Harvey , Maria, and more. In the year of the largest pandemic of decades, Brigades are again pooling their knowledge, resources, and know-how to help people in moments of crisis.

Let us know if you’re working on a rapid response project! Here are some links to projects and calls to action in the Rapid Response space. Many of these projects are COVID-19 related:

Additionally, on April 13th, over 70 Brigade members joined a workshop highlighting projects in the Network that are part of the COVID-19 response. Watch the video and check out the projects highlighted during the workshop!

What does this project entail? I’m a software engineer and would like to see if I can help somehow.

Awesome! I would recommend joining Code for America’s Slack, if you haven’t already. And then joining the #covid19response channel to be a part of the discussion of what projects folks are working on and how you can get involved. Additionally, here is a calendar of virtual Brigade meetings you can join in order to work on projects that are currently in development, many of which are focused on COVID 19 response.
