  • InsideOUT Writers (IOW) is a Los Angeles-based non-profit organization that conducts weekly writing classes inside Los Angeles County juvenile halls and jails. IOW also serves as a support network for formerly incarcerated young people. The program seeks to inspire personal growth and transformation through creative writing. Since 1996, more than 11,000 youth have participated in over 15,000 classes. During each class, students are given multiple writing prompts and are then asked to share their work and both receive and provide feedback from the writing circle. IOW also convenes annual writing retreats at juvenile detention facilities and publishes In Depth, a literary journal of students and alumni writings. The classes are taught by writers, poets, screenwriters, journalists, educators and other volunteers. Notable teachers have included Scott Budnick, Bruce Lisker and Mark Salzman. The organization is funded both by the county and private donors. (en)
