  • About Us

    YourWords STL is a non-profit organization that uses tutoring, creative writing workshops, and collaborative projects to help amplify the voices of St. Louis youth. We are committed to bridging racial, cultural, and economic divides by honing the ability of people to tell their stories while providing opportunities for the community to listen. 

    Since 2015, we have published seven chapbooks, hosted 7 community events, and touched the lives of more than 2,000 youth (180 annually). We provide tutoring and creative writing workshops at Marygrove Children's Home. We have also provided workshops for Washington University, Saint Louis University, Lift for Life Gym, and Dream Builders 4 Equity. Our Crossing Delmar Collaborative Projects join students from opposite sides of the Delmar Divide to create together on a creative project.
