Girls Write Now is a dynamic, multi-generational community of writers on a mission. For more than 20 years, our nationally award-winning programs have provided creative, critical and digital writing training, college and career readiness, personalized mentoring, and massive opportunities for the next generation of leaders. The deadline to apply for the 2020-2021 program year is Monday, June 8th.

Please Note: Girls Write Now programs have historically revolved around in-person activities. At this time, we have transitioned all of our services to a dynamic virtual environment. Programming for the 2020-21 year will continue virtually—and in person as safety allows.
