Bruna Moreira created the Big Open Source Sister (BOSS) mentoring program to welcome and guide underrepresented groups through contributing to open source communities. The program focuses on teaching the basics of open source through a 12-week online class, mentorship, and hands-on practices contributing to the LAPPIS rasa boilerplate project. Participants gain autonomy to contribute to other open source projects after completing the program.
