CREATING THE NEXT GENERATION OF TECH TALENT
How We’re Making a Difference
Join our free tech programs! Young adults are not being exposed to tech opportunities in the San Francisco, Bay Area and Beyond. To fix the issue of diversity in tech, untapped young adults need to be introduced to new opportunities and mentors who they can relate to.
Dev/Mission partners with tech companies and their employees to bridge the diversity gap in tech by offering mentorship, internship and apprenticeship opportunities, and corporate site visits. Learn more about our free tech programs and coding classes.

Jasmin
“The most remarkable feature of Dev/Mission is its supportive staff and instructors, who have created a welcoming and inclusive environment. As someone with little programming background, imposter syndrome can be overwhelming, but the Dev/Mission team has been crucial in alleviating those feelings.”
Faheemah
“Dev/Mission has provided a place for me to grow intellectually. As a third year computer science major, I learned and understood more during Dev/Missions Pre-Apprenticeship program, then I did at school. They provided resources to find internships/jobs and helped me build my confidence!”
Josephine
“Dev/Mission really did everything to make me feel like I belong here. As a first-gen college student and an immigrant, it has been difficult for me to find people to have meaningful conversations about my career. Thankfully, Dev/Mission has a mentor-matching program. I was able to connect with a mentor to discuss any questions I have. Dev/Mission is an one of its kind of program that not only teaches in-demand skills but also focuses on creating a community and support system.”
Eduardo
“After I graduated from Dev/Mission I was given many opportunities — a laptop, a mentor, and a stipend. They also gave me a six-month internship as an IT Technician managing all of the organization’s technology assets. I grew my network, connected to people in the tech industry, and gained lots of experience. This summer I am very excited to begin an apprenticeship position as a Desktop Support Specialist at Postmates.”
Ruqaiyah
“The best thing about the program is the overall mission. People of color are set at a disadvantage and those who are from low and even middle class income are set back even further. Giving us young people the opportunity to thrive and somewhat level out the playing field is amazing and well appreciated. I feel that we are never given the proper chance and access to programs like such to expose us to different fields of work and so with this program, it is truly a blessing.”
Gael
“My goals right now are just trying to learn as much as I can and get experience, they have helped me by offering me an internship and getting experience, as well as the corporate site visits and open lab days where its a day where we can go and get help from engineers who work in the tech industry.”
Mellany
“After completing the program I have new found confidence. I know that I do belong in the tech industry and I am taking advantage of every single opportunity that comes my way. Dev/Mission has instilled in me that just because I am a Latinx woman doesn’t mean I should be afraid to pursue my dreams, if anything they are like my fans cheering me on and supporting me every step of the way. “
