Each jurisdiction in California has a different building code that developers have to follow to construct new housing creating a fragmented and confusing space for new housing to be built.

Hack for Social Impact is free for all admitted hackers.
We have already scoped a list of high impact problem statements that were voiced by the non-profits. You just need to find a solution! You can form a team before the hackathon or on the day.
You are strongly encouraged to work on one of the three problem areas identified by our partners. However, if you feel strongly about a particular problem, feel free to build a solution. All solutions are judged based on impact potential.
If you are interested in working with us in a partnership or sponsorship capacity or have media or other inquiries, please reach out and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.
