Our Story
Underground Writing is a literature-based creative writing program dedicated to serving migrant, incarcerated, recovery, and other at-need communities in Washington. Since our first workshop in July 2015 at Skagit County Juvenile Detention, the program has expanded to five sites, including a weekly workshop for incarcerated adults at the Skagit County Community Justice Center. The mission is clear: to unlock creativity through writing workshops and amplify the voices of underrepresented students, fostering personal transformation and community restoration.
