There's the Girls Who Code program which is great to get involved in. The summer program is free, and the whole program is a non-profit. It can help increase connections through the programs amongst other things!
Hi! GenCyber has some stuff that is good for comp sci and in general, if you have a local university, researchers there might be interested in working with you if you want.

I would reccomend looking into any local coding groups or clubs, if you're a girl searching to see if there are any Girls Who Code branches in your area. Otherwise there are generally smaller highschool levels clubs for those sort of things.
