We’re excited to share that our Bronx District Attorney, Darcel D. Clark is recruiting for the Youth Advisory Council 2025 - 2026. This is an exciting initiative to empower Bronx students in grades 8-12 as advocates for meaningful change. As members, young people will have the opportunity to share with DA Clark their valuable insights and perspectives on matters affecting them and their communities, while learning about the criminal justice system. Please find the attached flyer for more details. The application deadline is Friday, September 26, 2025. Those selected will receive information about the first meeting via email.

Attention budding coders and computer programmers in grades 6-12! Regardless of your coding experience, you're invited to join us for the Intrepid Museum’s annual Hackathon, where you'll have the opportunity to learn, program and develop projects alongside your peers. This year, participants will have the opportunity to use their coding skills to tackle coding challenges created by NASA, as well as delve into challenges exploring AI.

Sign up as a team or come solo to explore. Meet like-minded future coders and work together to tackle challenges using various coding languages. A lite breakfast, snacks and lunch will be provided for all participants.

The Intrepid Museum provides the perfect backdrop to meet dynamic youth, socialize, learn and have fun! Teens and youth under the age of 16 must attend with an adult chaperone. We welcome all to bring their family and friends.
