About DEV MISSION

Dev/Mission is a San Francisco–based, donor-facing 501(c)(3) nonprofit that delivers free technology training and digital literacy services to young adults (primarily ages 16–24) and residents of affordable housing communities across the Bay Area. Programs include a Pre-Apprenticeship technical training pathway, a Community Technology Associate (CTA) free tech support program, a STEAM Hub, and a Digital Music Lab that combine technical skills, career readiness, and industry mentorship.

Founded in 2017 by Leonardo Sosa and a team of technologists, Dev/Mission partners with local tech companies for mentorship, corporate site visits, internship pipelines, and volunteer teaching. The organization reports active, ongoing programming with recent public updates in 2026 and maintains measurable impact metrics reflecting program reach and community tech support.

In recent years Dev/Mission has emphasized placements and pathway outcomes (internships and apprenticeships), community-facing tech support and device refurbishing, and small-to-medium grant-funded operations; it is visible on multiple donor platforms and listed as a grantee in regional foundation disclosures, confirming an active fundraising and program presence.
