iINVENT Expectations of Youth

During the iINVENT camp we work to create a welcoming community and invite youth to be willing to fail as they try out new things. Our motto is "fail fast and learn fast" with a supportive and inclusive community or peers. If you decide to join us at iINVENT, come knowing that inventors need a space to incubate ideas and to build community in order to develop creative solutions. We are here to welcome all youth into that space and are committed to building community with them.
