Writers Guild Initiative - Writers Guild Initiative

The mission of the Writers Guild Initiative is to serve populations whose voices are not being heard. The Writers Guild Initiative makes the art of storytelling accessible to people of all ethnic, cultural, and economic backgrounds – with special attention to the underserved. Our programs are dedicated to bringing professional film and television writers together with a range of communities whose voices and stories are underrepresented in the popular discourse. Our workshops link accomplished professional writers with members of marginalized communities facing significant challenges. Our goal is to help them use writing to reflect on experiences, share insights, identify a path forward and make their voices heard. What's Your Story? Find Your Voice. Tell It.

what we do The Writers Guild Initiative brings the craft of writing to communities whose voices and stories are underrepresented in the popular discourse. Our workshops are led by volunteer mentors professional film and television writers who connect with populations of new writers to encourage selfexpression through storytelling. For over a decade WGI has partnered with leading organizations to provide opportunities for their populations including wounded veterans family caregivers of veterans immigrant youth LGBTQ asylum seekers and people living with chronic illness to name a few. We most recently completed workshops with nurses on the front lines of the COVID crisis through a partnership with the New York Professional Nurses Union.
