Brave Behind Bars is an introductory computer science and career-readiness program for incarcerated women based out of The Educational Justice Institute at MIT. Taught both online and in-person, the program’s first iteration brought together 30 women from four correctional facilities across New England. Participating students developed skills in digital literacy, web design, and career-readiness, building websites to help address some of society’s most pressing issues.
