Describe the Organization's Mission:

Part 3 - Line 1

SUPPORTING STUDENTS AGES 6 TO 18 WITH THEIR WRITING SKILLS & HELPING TEACHERS GET STUDENTS EXCITED ABOUT WRITING. WE ADVOCATE THAT STRONG WRITING SKILLS ARE FUNDAMENTAL TO FUTURE SUCCESS & THAT GREAT LEAPS IN LEARNING CAN BE MADE WHEN SKILLED TUTORS WORK ONE-ON-ONE WITH STUDENTS.

Part 3 - Line 4a

IN-SCHOOL PROGRAMS: 826 VALENCIA PARTNERS WITH PUBLIC SCHOOLS THROUGHOUT SAN FRANCISCO TO COLLABORATIVELY DEVELOP WRITING CURRICULA. WE ALSO BRING TEAMS OF 826 STAFF AND VOLUNTEER TUTORS TO PARTNER SCHOOLS WHERE WE SUPPORT STUDENTS 3:1 WITH WRITING PROJECTS. IN FY22, WE SUPPORTED 17 TEACHERS AND 675 STUDENTS AT 6 SCHOOLS, ESTABLISHING REGULAR WEEKLY PARTNERSHIPS WITH CLASSROOMS AND SUPPORTING A VARIETY OF WRITING PROJECTS. ONE HIGHLIGHT WAS OUR YOUNG AUTHORS BOOK PROJECT IN SPRING 2022. WE WORKED WITH STUDENTS AT JUNE JORDAN SCHOOL FOR EQUITY, WHERE STUDENTS EXPLORED SPECULATIVE FICTION AND WORKED WITH 826 STAFF AND TUTORS TO CRAFT POWERFUL PIECES OF WRITING. WE PUBLISHED THEIR WORK IN A BOOK ENTITLED, ""THE HIDDEN SECRET"" WHICH WAS RELEASED AT AN OUTDOOR READING EVENT IN MAY OF 2022.


OTHER PROGRAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS INCLUDE THE OPERATION OF 2 RETAIL STORES. THE STORES SELL EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS, BOOKS FOR CHILDREN, AND OTHER WHIMSICAL CHILDREN'S TOYS, AND SERVE AS A COMMUNITY TOUCH-POINT IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS WHERE WE OPERATE. OTHER PROGRAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS ALSO INCLUDE THE DESIGN AND PUBLISHING INFRASTRUCTURE FOR OUR VARIOUS PUBLISHING PROGRAMS, AND OUR VOLUNTEER PROGRAMS.
