Mission

826LA is dedicated to supporting students ages 6 to 18 with their creative and expository writing skills and to helping teachers inspire their students to write. 826LA's services are structured around the understanding that great leaps in learning can happen with one-on-one attention and that strong writing skills are fundamental to students' future success. With this approach and objective in mind, 826LA provides in-school tutoring, assistance with student publications, after-school tutoring, workshops, and help for English language learners. All programs are free, and the overriding goal is to help our students find their voice and give them the power to express that voice with creativity and confidence.

About

In-school support--906 students served--45 volunteers: As we focus on expanding our writers' rooms, we are gradually sunsetting other in-schools programming. Nevertheless, in 2018-2019, volunteers helped high school seniors--and more juniors than ever--get started on their personal statements for college. One hundred percent of teachers said the program met their curricular needs, and 100% said that 826LA volunteers were well-trained in supporting their students.
