About
At Writing For Freedom, a 501c(3) nonprofit, we believe that every young woman has a powerful story to tell. Our mission is to equip girls from marginalized communities with the tools to reclaim their narratives and amplify their voices through creative writing.
​
From our H.E.R. Society, where young women engage in transformative writing workshops, to our one-on-one mentorship programs that provide personal guidance from established writers, we foster a supportive and empowering environment. Our Blerd Chronicles series celebrates and amplifies the stories of young women of color who are passionate about geek culture, science fiction, fantasy, and more—creating a space where creativity and identity collide. We’re not just building better writers; we’re empowering the next generation of changemakers.
We believe all women can embrace who they are,
can define their future, and can change the world.
Our Mission
...is to provide girls and young women with writing tools and a platform to create, revise, and share their narratives. We use art-based programming, mental health support, and leadership tools to help girls and women of color express themselves freely and creatively. Participants will be equipped with tools to develop stories from across all genres -fiction or nonfiction, comics or graphic novels, screenplays or novels - and resources to publish their completed work.
Our Vision
...is to increase the number of female authors of color to reclaim and publish their stories.
