Pongo Poetry Project is a Seattle-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to engaging youth in writing poetry to inspire healing and growth. Through their trauma-informed approach, Pongo empowers teens to express themselves authentically and creatively, regardless of their writing experience.
With a focus on providing resources and community support for counselors and teachers, Pongo offers training workshops, teaching resources, and a variety of poetry collections written by teenagers in King County juvenile detention. By fostering vulnerability as a strength and encouraging honesty in self-expression, Pongo Poetry Project aims to create a safe space for youth to explore their emotions and experiences through the power of poetry.
