From one of top after-school programs in the nation, Girls Write Now, comes the next installment in the organization's award-winning anthology series: a literary celebration that showcases the girls and their mentors' best work. Rise Speak Change explores our evolving creative narrative, celebrating the importance of igniting change and starting anew as writers, thinkers, women, and media makers.
