Do you believe in second chances? We do! April is recognized as Second Chance Month for juveniles incarcerated in the justice system. You can help Writers in Residence give our youth another chance and transform the lives of justice-involved youth through creative writing and mentorship by participating in its Juvenile Justice 5K and 1-mile Walk. That's right, you don't need to break a sweat to support a great cause!Proceeds from this event will benefit over 400 youth!
Writers in Residence remains to be the leading arts and justice nonprofit in Ohio committed to impacting justice-involved youth. Since 2017, the organization has taught creative writing to youth who are incarcerated to empower their voices and assist in their reentry into society. We fulfill our mission by facilitating Creative Writing Workshops to residents inside juvenile facilities as well as mentoring them after their release through our Reentry Mentorship Initiative. Writers in Residence strives to reduce the recidivism rates of our youth and participate in the transformation of the juvenile justice system.
