Girls Rising

Girls, we’re facing challenges we haven’t seen in more than two generations. Our roles as women – in the home, at work, as citizens – is all at once advancing and retracting, driven by forces that may seem beyond our control. In the face of all that is going on around us, we can say this with all certainty: your voice is the answer to what comes next.

Bring your unique perspective to the writers’ table, and be surrounded by girls who have opinions, dreams, fears, and frustrations, just like you. Come get inspired by women writers and artists, past and present, who speak truth to power and each other. We’ll get in-depth on how far women have come, where we are now, and what you want your future to be. Using whatever writing style suits each of us best, we’ll unflinchingly take on a world that often underestimates our individual will and collective might.

We are unapologetic and proud of the imperfect, amazing girls we are – and welcome anyone who self-identifies as a girl, woman, trans, or gender nonconforming, and wants to be part of what comes next.
