Mission Statement
9 Dots' mission is to use education to close access gaps for students in underserved communities. We focus on STEM skills (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics), working to lay a solid foundation for futures in tech fields. These are the fastest growing job sectors today, and are fields where underserved communities are highly underrepresented. At our Hollywood-based learning center, we run a free after-school program and develop learning initiatives that give our youth better access to education in order to help them achieve their dreams.
