A student-founded program at Mission High School, San Francisco. Built in partnership with 826 Valencia to support newcomer immigrant, refugee, and undocumented students in learning English and navigating the U.S. education system.

Finding Our Voice was started by students who saw a gap and decided to close it. We noticed newcomer students struggling to find their place in a new language and a new country. So we did something about it.

Co-founded by Gil Silva, Yuli, Emir, and Darwing at Mission High School in San Francisco.

30+ students helped. $10,000 grant from Youth Funding Youth Ideas. One student-led program.

This is the source code for the Finding Our Voice website. It's a single-page site built without any frameworks or build tools: just HTML, CSS, and a little JavaScript.
