What weβre about
Volunteers in Sacramento creating open-source tech solutions to empower and improve our local community
ππ½ Hey, we're heading to the inaugural ACT Congress, and you're invited!
This is the annual gathering where civic tech groups from all over the country come together to share ideas, showcase projects, and learn from one another and Open Sacramento is proud to represent Greater Sacramento!
Whether you're a longtime volunteer, a curious newcomer, or someone who just loves seeing tech used for good, ACT Congress is a great way to plug into the wider civic tech community and bring fresh ideas back home to Sacramento.
Here's what to expect:
πΉInspiring talks from civic tech leaders
πΉHands-on sessions and project showcases
πΉA chance to connect with like-minded folks using tech to strengthen communities
πΉ Plenty of ideas to bring back to our local Open Sacramento work
Want to join us?
You don't have to be a coder or tech wizard, if you care about your community and want to see how technology can help solve real problems, you belong at ACT Congress!
