“CodeAcross is an opportunity for citizens to participate in building stronger, more open and engaging governments where they live, but also to be connected to a global network of citizens who are doing the same thing around the world,” said Catherine Bracy, Code for America’s director of community organizing. “The goal is to build long-lasting communities who can collaborate with their governments to make cities work better.”
「CodeAcross 是一個公民參與的在地機會，一同打造一個更強健、更開放、參與度更高的政府，並同時和全世界其他有志一同的公民們相互連結。」Code for America 社群組織總監凱薩琳•布萊希 (Catherine Bracy) 表示，「我們的目標，是希望能在各地建立長久持續的社群，而他們可以與當地政府攜手合作、共同讓城市運作得更好。」
