Project Title: Mighty Writers Whole Child Approach to Academic Success
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
Mighty Writers teaches kids, ages three to 17, to think and write with clarity so they can achieve success at school, work, and life. At MW, we believe that literacy is a kryptonite to poverty. The ability to express oneself. To think clearly. To write with clarity. Nothing, we believe, beats poverty senseless with as much efficiency and finality as intensive reading and writing experiences.<\/p>\n
Here is what we know:
\n-When kids think clearly, and write with clarity, their self-esteem soars. When that happens, they begin to see a bright future.
\n-In order to think and write with clarity, the whole child must be supported. Therefore, all the needs of the children must be met in order to thrive- social, emotional, physical, mental and academic.
\n-Children CANNOT think clearly or write with clarity when they are hungry.
\n-Mighty Writers is an anti-violence initiative by its very nature. We teach kids to write. That means we teach kids to think. We talk with the kids– not at them– about things that are important to them. We provide safe sanctuary. <\/p>\n
All of our programs are designed to confront educational inequity in the marginalized communities we serve. We firmly focus on amplifying and empowering our students\u2019 voices while providing high-quality, community-oriented and culturally relevant writing programs and mentorships. Through our out-of-school time programs, MW develops unique and enriching communities, champions the stories of diverse youth writers, and drives each student to reach their maximum potential.<\/p>\n
Through all our programs, we utilize mindfulness to teach kids to be emotionally resilient, cultivate their inner-strength, and foster their overall sense of well-being. These outcomes are indispensable skills students can use throughout their lives to regulate their emotional response to stressful situations and sustain better focus and concentration at school, work, and in their relationships.\n<\/p>\n
