“Gaining and improving writing skills while in high school is critical. I reported from my school paper, ‘The Maroon Echo’ at Bayer High School in Long Island, New York. I saw then that when we reported fairly, accurately and critically, people paid attention.”

- Amy Goodman, Host of Democracy Now!

“Everything I am—every branch, every flower, every piece of fruit that makes up the tree of my being and the crown of my canopy—is thanks not solely to myself, but the programs I have been a part of. Teens in Print helped me recognize my voice further and supplied me with the tools needed to strengthen it.”

- Bendu David, Former Teens in Print Youth Leader & Alumna

"[WordPowered's Collaborative Coaching program] is the true definition of a partnership. My coach genuinely cares about helping me succeed—not in a ‘let me tell you what to do’ way, but ‘let's work to get there together’ way."

- Early career English teacher

"I feel like family with the TiP team (peers and instructors included)! I tried so many new forms of writing this year and couldn't be happier with what I've learned in the process."

- Teens in Print reporter, 12th grade

"I never wrote this much before and I've never had this much freedom when it came to writing, so [the Summer Journalism Institute] really made me realize that it's fun to tell your own stories/opinions."

- TiP Summer Journalism Institute participant
