Urban Poets Society’s mission is to create an organized support system; to uplift the community and the youth through mentorship and leadership programs. We believe that all mediums of art are poetry, and strive to give the voiceless a voice through their creations. We support our community and youth through scholarships, mental health support, and BIPOC centered opportunities to use the arts to enhance their lives, experiences, and abilities.
We believe that when the community is given opportunities to contribute to their environment in a creative way, then they discover how valuable and indispensable their talents are to the world around them.
