Inhaltsangabe

The Scriber Lake High School Writing Program in Edmonds, Washington uses writing as a powerful vehicle for change. The courage demonstrated by these students in their willingness to share experiences with homelessness, abuse, addiction and mental illness--matched by the outstanding writing in this collection--allows readers to enter perspectives crucial for understanding today's youth. By choosing to express their way toward healing and hope, they are giving others both permission and inspiration to join them.
