Our 9-week Published Writers Program takes clients from the intimidation of a blank page to the experience of being a published writer. The class uses the pain of living in poverty as a powerful tool to heal, transform and create inspiring work that touches the soul.

Together, students validate themselves in a safe environment, tell their stories and create images of hope and possibility for the future. Each program ends with a published volume
of work and a public reading to celebrate the achievements of our courageous new writers.
