At Square, we have a strong, supportive, and empowering community of women engineers and allies. We come together as a group: WomEng. Our group grew from a mailing list to regular, in-person gatherings. Today, WomEng expands outside of Square and includes a large network of women engineers.
We had many conversations and meetings to establish our group and come up with our recurring events. So, to help others start or expand a WomEng group in their community, we’re open sourcing a handbook with everything someone needs to get started.
Pull requests are welcome. We encourage you to share your own resources and event ideas. Together, we can continue to grow the WomEng community.
The first version of this handbook wouldn’t be possible without the thoughtful input from these great folks:
- Alyssa Pohahau (@arpohahau)
- Vanessa Slavich (@vslavich)
- Lindsay Wiese (@opazazzyzen)
- Timothy Yip (@tyip)
- Jenni Snyder (@jcsuperstar)
- Janet Ikpa (@jikpapa)
We hope that many more people contribute.
