Adaversity

We created a website that enables minorities such as girls, the LGBTQ+ community, and racial minorities, to find social support groups near them, so they feel heard and build new connections.

Inspiration

We come from several underrepresented communities as we are girls and people of color. We know how it feels to be unsupported and lonely. That is why we decided to create a website so minorities can connect, feel heard, and talk about their experiences in a safe environment.

What it does

This website allows people to find social support groups that 1) fit the underrepresented community they are apart of and 2) find groups near them.

Our website

How we built it

We used HTML, CSS, and JS on Replit.

Challenges we ran into

Our biggest setback was finding a way to embed different Google Map pinpoints into our website based on the user's input. We struggled to use HTML and JS hand-in-hand.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We successfully fixed our issue by creating the iframe element in HTML and changing the source link in JS based on if-else statements.

What we learned

We learned more about HTML, CSS, and JS as most of us started off as beginners. We learned how to embed Google Maps into our website, create variables, and collaboratively work together.

What's next for Adaversity

We hope to broaden our impact scope and also create this demo website into an actual website that can help people all over the United States (or even the world)!
