Late last month, we were thrilled to hold our 2nd Annual Board Retreat in San Francisco, California. In hosting our retreat in the Bay Area, where the tech industry was born and still (largely) resides, we hoped to expose our organization to the innovation that the area offers. The weekend retreat was a crucial time for us to reflect upon All Star Code’s achievements and begin planning for our growth and future.

Since the beginning, the board’s leadership has been crucial in building this organization. Our incredible board is made up of leaders from diverse sectors, hailing from New York to California. The retreat provided an opportunity for our board members to establish relationships, develop team camaraderie and have honest dialogue that is essential for this work. Eight out of our ten board members were able to attend, along with their spouses.
