About Writers in the Community

The Writers in the Community program pairs small groups of young people with a professional writer or literary performance artist who can teach them and, more importantly, motivate them, to use language to express themselves in productive ways. In each project, a writer-facilitator works with a small group for 10 weeks, teaching them language tools, giving them writing prompts, and ultimately, boosting their self-confidence by showing them that they are capable of producing literary work of value.

Most of our partners are unable to make a financial contribution to the program. We raise most of the money we need for the program from foundations and public funders, but it’s not enough.

Fortunately, the QWF community has been extraordinarily generous since we launched our first Pyramid Campaign in 2011. Each year, our members have contributed a significant proportion of the funds that help us to finance the Writers in the Community workshops.
