Mission Statement

Literature for All of Us uses books and writing to facilitate circles of connection, healing and growth in the face of social inequity. By inviting participants to explore the transformative power of their own voices, we help build resilience.

Description

Literature for All of Us is a catalyst for change that opens minds and hearts. We offer book group programs to young people that include reading and discussing literature and writing poetry. Participants learn to respond personally and aesthetically to literature, to share their own stories, enjoy reading, appreciate the importance of language, make connections, and empower each other as individuals and parents. We are a training resource for others who want to replicate this model. (Please see website for more info.)
