RE Cares is a series of RE sessions and hackathons to work with real stakeholders representing a non-profit organization
local to the conference venue, to elicit and specify requirements, as well as to develop an initial design for one or more software
products.

All RE participants are welcome to join RE Cares. We particularly encourage students to join us.
