“Girls Write Now inspired me to think of myself as more than someone who writes, but as a writer. My years as a mentee gave me the foundation to be the author I’m proud to be today “
– Joy L. Smith, Author and Mentee Alum
“Joining Career 360 turned into another moment for me to grow. I learned how to collaborate and looked for ways to fully step into a more mature, self-assured person…I swear I feel like crying just trying to express my gratitude.”
– Dolores Haze, Editorial Intern and Class of 2023 Alum


“I was struggling to cope with the overwhelming racial violence in the media and a truckload of uncertainties about my senior year during the pandemic. Most days, I was moving around my house listlessly. I was practically a zombie. Then I attended a Salon on Poetry and I started to come alive. The environment of positivity, warmth, and encouragement helped transfer all my negative emotions into rich lines of metaphors and imagery. Through this event, I learned to strengthen my voice and transform it. Girls Write Now was there for me.”
– Kilhah St. Fort, Mentee
