Welcome

Youth Literacy Project is a student-led upcoming non-profit based in Berkeley, California. We started as a Berkeley High School Club, The Right Writers, and in the winter of 2024, we’ve decided to take a step forward and become a non-profit! We volunteer at local libraries, publish original writings, and create a community for writers & readers to be themselves.

  • Volunteering at the library
