Our Mission
Mighty Writers’ mission is to teach kids to think clearly and write with clarity so they succeed in school, at work and in life. We offer free high-quality after-school programs that improve academic performance, address educational and socioeconomic inequities, and build social-emotional skills.
During the school year, our free educational programs run every day at our welcoming and inclusive centers. In the summer, we hold multidisciplinary day camps that run six or eight weeks, depending on the site. Two of our sites are bilingual and cater to Spanish-speaking families. All of our sites host family and community programs on evenings and weekends.
Our Mighty Writers Distribution program, which launched out of necessity during the pandemic, provides fresh and nutritious food, diapers, school supplies, books and other essential resources — all free of charge.
Mighty Writers At Home offers virtual workshops, while Mighty Writers On the Road brings our programs to schools, social service agencies and community centers.
