“In response to the increasingly digital nature of the writing and media landscape, Girls Write Now created a Digital Media Mentoring Program in 2012. After a successful 18-month pilot, the program was brought to scale in Fall 2013. Mirroring the format of our Writing & Mentoring Program, girls in the digital program met weekly with mentors and attended monthly dorkshops where they learned about game design, audio recording, video editing, and animation. Taught by Girls Write Now staff and graduate students from Parsons The New School for Design, this digital program allowed girls to explore the intersection between writing and technology.”
