Community Partnerships

At Poets Underground, we value our community partners as essential collaborators in advancing our mission of using poetry for healing and empowerment. Our partners include schools, mental health facilities, jails, cultural organizations, and local businesses, all working together to bring transformative poetry programs to diverse audiences. Through these partnerships, we create impactful workshops, engaging events, and inclusive spaces that promote mental wellness, artistic expression, and community connection. By joining forces with these dedicated organizations, Poets Underground amplifies the power of poetry to foster growth, resilience, and positive change in our communities.
