Who we are, and why we exist
A federally incorporated non-profit working so that AI serves the communities it usually leaves out.
Who We Are
BrainTrainr is a federally incorporated non-profit and a nimble, largely volunteer-based organization that is Indigenous- and Latino-led, grounded in the 4Rs: Relationality, Reciprocity, Responsibility, and Respect.
We work to break down barriers to AI knowledge and digital skills — especially for marginalized and equity-deserving communities, including newcomers and refugees, Black communities, women, Indigenous peoples, people with disabilities, and others facing systemic exclusion.
Our Mission
BrainTrainr’s mission is to break down barriers to AI knowledge and digital skills by delivering accessible, community-centered learning and supporting responsible adoption — so AI serves equity-deserving communities fairly and safely.
Our Vision
To close the digital divide and create an AI-literate workforce that thrives in an AI-driven economy.
Our Values
The 4 Rs
Every program, partnership and design decision is checked against these four.
Relationality
Prioritize relationships, trust, and community voice in design and collaboration.
Reciprocity
Aim for mutual benefit, fair exchange, and shared value.
Responsibility
Take accountability for impacts and actively manage AI & data risks.
Respect
Honour people, cultures, and lived experience through consent, care, and privacy.
