LITERARY ACTIVISTS
We are thrilled that you are interested in serving on our Executive Board. Uniquely, our leadership team supports both #TeenWritersProject and The Writer's Block, Inc. to bring fresh, diverse, and innovative voices of all ages to the literary world.

“Oh, the places we will go” with you on our team! As a member of our team, you’ll play a vital role in guiding the success of both organizations, and in exchange, you’ll support two impactful organizations with one collective mission. You'll advocate for diverse voices, disrupt inequities in education and publishing, and collaborate with passionate individuals to shape the future of literary arts.

  • At #TeenWritersProject, we create collaborative and engaging spaces where teens can write, be published, and get paid—building creativity, agency, and equity in classrooms and the publishing industry.
  • At The Writer’s Block, Inc., we’ve spent decades supporting writers of color by providing workshops, literary events, publishing opportunities, and retreats that turn stories into literary works of art.

By joining our board, you will play a key role in shaping the future of both organizations while creating a powerful Butterfly Effect: small actions that result in huge impacts. As a board member, you’ll help teens and adults alike become their best literary, visual, and creative selves while driving innovation in the publishing world.

If you’re ready to use your creativity, resources, and insight to create meaningful change, please apply. We look forward to hearing from you!
