Our Story

CS Hands-On is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a mission to make computer science education an inclusive subject for all students, not just those with access to technology. After months of brainstorming and inventing, we built our curriculum to teach computer science in an engaging, yet technology-free way. At CS Hands-On, we're all about inclusivity!
