I wrote a thing! Check it out. #COVID19 shows us what government is capable of when we center what people actually need, and the program I help lead -- #CfAbrigade Network -- is showing up in beautiful, leader-full ways to supercharge that kind of work.

We’re seeing brand new #COVID19 response projects cropping up throughout the #CfABrigadeNetwork, centering on-the-ground user needs of both impacted community members and their local governments. Learn more about this work: okt.to/0U8lA6 #NationalVolunteerWeek

If someone says they can’t find enough women in tech to hire, encourage, promote, show them this picture of 25000 amazing women in tech and assure them that not all of them came to attend #GHC19 and there are more back home! 😉#womenintech #AnitaB #Equity #5050By2025

Super cool! Lots of people here for Colorado Migrahack at DU. Hoping I can learn from these smart people (in between calls, of course, unfortunately).

And thanks to our amazing volunteers, we have a working prototype. Next, we'll take it to our community partners and expungement experts to see what needs to be improved or fixed! :) – at Nashville, TN

My #NationalDayofCivicHacking team at @OpenOakland is trying to figure out how people are supposed to clear their criminal records based on what we can find available on the web (automatic aside). It's CONFUSING. #empathy try courts.ca.gov/1070.htm for an example. – at Oakland, CA

How do you collaborate well in a remote team? Process + tools are the first things to figure out. I wrote a brand new piece on best practices for both, based on our remote work survey data + insights from 1,000+ managers in thewatercooler.io... knowyourteam.com/blog/2019/0…

Even if you throw it away (I've done this!) you can blow people away with delivering a real thing — a real thing you could turn on today! — without requiring 13 meetings and a change management process to do so.

@codeforamerica hurricane response is up and running since Thursday. If you're affected by #HurricaneDorian and need a shelter, text your zip code to 44663 (4-GOOD) to find open ones nearby, or go to dorian.hurricane-response.or….

Fewer than 10% of those eligible for record clearance have received it. We're working to change that. Learn more about #NationalDayofCivicHacking & the powerful impact record clearance can have: okt.to/PIGTn8 #CivicJustice

I'm taking a new approach when a dev asks me for help, the first thing I say to them is "Tell me about what you have tried." This invites them to lead the discussion rather than myself. Plus, we all know the benefits of talking about your approach out loud 😉
