About Us
The Youth Writers Challenge (YWC) 501(c)(3) is a community-based organization dedicated to providing local youth with the positive support and encouragement to groom their minds in the art of creative writing. World renowned writer Robert Frost once stated , ‘I write to find out what I didn’t know I knew.’ That quote best summarizes the overall goal of YWC. Our aim is to inspire vivid, practical approaches for youth to refine budding skills.
Our vision is to see youth using actively engaged in reading, writing and networking while building social skills. By providing them with resources and supplies, they will walk the path towards authorship with confidence.
Our program objective is simple: We want to create great writers! By providing them with work journals, optional participation in the monthly Youth Slam. Workshops facilitated by authors who provide hands-on lessons on writing, editing, publishing and illustration; as well as networking opportunities with other creative writing programs, our objective is achievable for each of the students.
