Get inspired! Make an impact! Support the voices of teens and be part of a positive community of creative writers!
WriteGirl, now in its 24th season, is a creative writing and mentoring organization that empowers teen girls/gender-expansive youth in Los Angeles and around the world through mentoring relationships with women/gender-expansive writers. You may have seen us in the news as the mentoring organization where Inaugural Poet Amanda Gorman got her start! Mentors work with teens one-on-one (online and sometimes in-person), and participate in group writing workshops online. While most programming takes place online, WriteGirl does present several in-person events in Los Angeles and other cities. WriteGirl is particularly seeking mentors throughout the U.S. and abroad who can mentor teens virtually. WriteGirl is based in Los Angeles, but volunteers can join from anywhere. (Get a sneak peek of WriteGirl here!)
WriteGirl is seeking women/gender-expansive writers in all genres including fiction, poetry, journalism, screenwriting, songwriting, copywriting, business writing and more to help mentor teens (girls/gender-expansive youth), inspire them to express their creative ideas, guide them to higher education and careers and be a kind and compassionate role model. One of our notable alums is Inaugural Poet Amanda Gorman, who credits WriteGirl for giving her the confidence to share her creative voice on a national stage. Applicants should have empathy, listening skills, kindness and a passion for helping to inspire young voices. While WriteGirl does not require mentors to be published writers, applicants should have strong creative writing skills and communication skills. We offer weekly, monthly and periodic mentoring opportunities for all of our volunteers.
Screening and Training: All volunteers are required to complete two half-day online orientations/trainings, an intake interview and a criminal background check.
Join a vibrant community of writers and inspire the youth of the next generation!
