Writers in Residence’s Juvenile Justice 5k

Do you believe in second chances? We do! April is recognized as Second Chance Month for juveniles incarcerated in the justice system. You can help Writers in Residence give our youth another chance and transform the lives of justice-involved youth through creative writing and mentorship by participating in its inaugural Juvenile Justice 5K (and 1-mile Walk). That's right, you don't need to break a sweat to support a great cause!
