We are Prince
George’s County’s first performance poetry
organization for youth and young adults. Our programs use spoken word
poetry to sharpen language arts skills. Through our programs, CWA youth
poets learn to effectively address personal and social issues they face at
home, at school and in the community.
Our mission is to serve area youth through programs and to
shape tomorrow's civic leaders. CWA youth poets work to meet social needs
in Prince George’s
County. They also raise awareness about the emerging art of
performance poetry.
