About this episode
In this special PODCASTHON episode of Outrage Overload, we’re spotlighting Dev Mission, a nonprofit dedicated to training and mentoring underserved young adults for careers in tech. We sit down with Leonardo Sosa, founder and executive director of Dev Mission, to discuss how the organization is closing the digital divide, increasing diversity in tech, and helping young people from underrepresented backgrounds break into the industry.
Leo shares how his passion for technology and workforce development led to the creation of Dev Mission. We’ll hear inspiring success stories of young people who, despite limited resources, are now thriving in STEM careers, thanks to hands-on training, mentorship, and access to tech apprenticeships.
If you’re passionate about closing opportunity gaps, equity in tech, and helping the next generation succeed, this episode is for you. Tune in to learn how you can support Dev Mission—whether through mentorship, volunteering, or spreading awareness.
