What happens when poetry comes into your life? Can words make a difference? This Place Called Poetry is a multimedia project following 11 talented youth poets from San Francisco who've embarked on a lifelong journey with words.
WritersCorps hires experienced teachers who are published poets, fiction writers, and performers. These writers-in-service work long-term and in-depth in communities to build lasting relationships and to provide positive role models for young people. In addition to teaching creative writing, the WritersCorps work together as a team producing special projects and supporting each other as resources in the field of community arts.
