Girls Write Now information


Girls Write Now is a nonprofit organization serving girls and gender-expansive youth who attend New York City public schools and are from historically and systemically underserved communities. It was founded by Maya Nussbaum, now executive director, in 1998 during her senior year at Columbia University.[1] As part of its core mentoring program, Girls Write Now matches young women from disadvantaged backgrounds who are interested in writing with professional women writers.[2] In 2009, the Girls Write Now mentoring program was recognized by the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities as an outstanding arts program for youth, and it received the Coming Up Taller Award.[3]
