MISSION

Chapter 510 is a made-in-Oakland youth writing, bookmaking & publishing center. Our teaching artists and volunteers work side by side with educators to provide a safe space and supportive community so Black, brown, and queer youth ages 8-19 can bravely write.

VISION

We want every young person in Oakland to write with confidence and joy.

WHAT WE STAND FOR

We believe that writing is an act of liberation. Young people transform themselves and their communities when they write and get published, succeeding in work, school, and life.

INSPIRED BY

Chapter 510 & the Dept. of Make / Believe is and 826 National-inspired organization.
