Zoom meeting details provided with RSVP
Are you curious how artificial intelligence can be used to solve real social challenges—like making affordable housing more accessible?
Join Justice Through Code for our Flagship Graduation Showcase, where Fellows will debut four AI-powered tools integrated into Bloom Housing—one of the nation's leading affordable housing platforms used by cities across the country.
This virtual showcase will feature four innovative AI solutions developed by our talented Fellows:
- CasaLingua: A multilingual AI agent that allows housing staff to communicate with applicants in dozens of languages—using clear, simple words to avoid confusion and delays.
- Income Calculation Assistant: An AI agent that guides applicants through calculating their household income—turning a confusing step into a clear, step-by-step process.
- Bloom Assistant: A personalized AI agent that walks applicants through the affordable housing process and suggests programs tailored to their needs.
- Risk Prediction System: An AI tool that flags applicants at risk of housing instability—so providers can intervene early and prevent crises.
This is more than a graduation—it's a live demo of what ethical, community-centered AI can do. You'll meet the developers, see the tech in action, and hear how fair chance talent is helping shape the future of AI for good.

About Justice Through Code
Justice Through Code (JTC) works to solve the crisis of mass incarceration by offering life-changing access to career-track opportunities in the technology industry to people impacted by the mass incarceration crisis. JTC seeks to tackle mass incarceration by addressing two of the most significant contributors to recidivism: a lack of job training and the subsequently high rates of unemployment for the formerly incarcerated. In response to these challenges, JTC aims to equip participants with the requisite skills to embark on a sustainable career in the tech industry through a semester-long coding intensive that includes interpersonal skills training and networking opportunities. The goal is for JTC students to emerge as competitive applicants for jobs, internships, or future job/tech training.
