Summary

The tech industry is launching initiatives to support President Barack Obama's Summer Jobs+ program, aiming to provide employment opportunities for underprivileged and disconnected youth in technology. The United States Chief Technology Officer Aneesh Chopra announced three tech-focused initiatives, including Codecademy's "Code Summer+" program, which teaches programming basics to thousands of low-income youth. The Level Playing Field Institute will expand its SMASH Academy on four college campuses, while College Bound Brotherhood is launching a summer internship program for African American youths in Bay Area tech companies. Employers can contribute by tagging job postings and creating content for the Code Year program, with Twilio's CEO emphasizing the importance of teaching students to build and deploy their own software.
