We will offer tours of facilitates, workforce development training, and college internships.

Organizing Team

RaP CiDy D is 4 Dope is curated by a small team of physical science teachers , construction engineers, corporate leaders, music & arts professionals and financial literacy presenters who believe that technology must serve the planet — not the other way around. Working between National Grid, McKissack & McKissack, NYC Public School System, Primerica and Bridge Street Development Corp, the team brings together local knowledge and global collaboration to shape a gathering rooted in care, creativity, and systems thinking.
We don’t just program talks — we curate experiences, relationships, and ideas that grow long after the program ends.
