Write Your Life is a first-person arts-based workshop that uses hip hop and spoken word poetry to promote youth development and resiliency. This workshop shows how creative writing and performance based activities impact social and emotional development and encourages youth to develop skills that support spirituality and wellness, lifelong learning, identity development, understanding of culture and community building, and promote education attainment.

Please note there will be an encore of this session at 4:00pm on Tuesday, March 5 in Room 2 of the Austin Convention Center.
