Hello Sacramento Peers,
Hope you are staying dry! I am writing you to tell you about our upcoming event CodeForHood Youth Hackathon.
Code For Hood is a program of the non profit 5013c Operation Innovate, that spun out of Hacker Lab. CFH, focuses on teaching and leveling the playing field for disadvantaged and at risk youth. On 11/4-11/6 2016, we will submerge 150 youth in all things STEAM. For a day and a half they will learn everything from robotics to electronics to coding to video game dev to creative arts.
On day 3 the youth will take the skills they have learned, create teams, and compete for prizes. It is an amazing event.
This years supporters are West Sacramento’s Mayor’s Office, Senator Pan, WUSD, Future Ready, ATT, Consolidated Communications, SMUD and of course Hacker Lab. This is an amazing event and great for the kids! The event is 45.00 for a full weekend of education and fun!

Safe Talk Training
2017-01-27 09:30 - 13:00 | Kutba Room (Medical Clinic), 2020 J Street, Sacramento, CA, 95811, United States
SafeTALK is a three hour training that prepares anyone
over the age of 15 to identify persons with thoughts of
suicide and connect them to suicide first aid resources.
Most people with thoughts of suicide invite help to stay
safe. Alert helpers know how to use these opportunities
to support that desire for safety. As a SafeTALK-trained
suicide alert helper, you will be better able to:

Move beyond common tendencies to miss, dismiss or
avoid suicide;

Identify people who have thoughts of suicide;

Apply the TALK steps (Tell, Ask, Listen and
KeepSafe) to connect a person with suicide thoughts
to suicide first aid, intervention care givers.

Space is limited!
