About Us
At Write the Wrongs, we believe every voice deserves to be heard, and every story deserves a chance to be told. We bridge the gap between silence and self-expression by partnering with MFA programs to train emerging writers while bringing fiction and poetry workshops to communities where creative writing is rarely an option. In classrooms, shelters, libraries, and beyond, we create spaces where those who have never had access to storytelling can discover the power of their own words.
Our programs don’t just teach craft—they open doors. Participants gain a platform for self-expression, cultural preservation, and healing while envisioning a future where they, too, can be writers. By connecting passionate MFA students with those who have long been unheard, we turn the blank page into a place of possibility, transformation, and belonging.

“My journey with WITC began in 2023 as a student teacher at Recovery Café, where I witnessed firsthand the power of writing to restore, empower, and heal. In a room filled with individuals battling addiction, I saw stories provide both an outlet and some hope where there had been frustration and despair. When one of our students passed away, I experienced something profound: grief being transformed into creativity. Through working on their recovery and writing about grief, our students found a way to process their pain, honor a life lost, and forge a path forward. That moment solidified what I already believed—our stories are important.”
