In 2021 and 2023, the class partnered with CERC to collaborate with local non-profits to address research-related needs the non-profits had. In 2021 the class worked with 212 Catalysts, the DJ Bling Foundation, and the Austin Urban Technology Movement (AUTM).
In 2023 the class worked with Girlstart, The Man in Me, and Texas Legislative Black Caucus (the photo is from the day the 2023 class presented the results of their projects to their non-profit partners).
