“The lived experiences of these young souls is stunning to learn about through their own words - at times it is overwhelming to know what harm has happened to them and their families in their early life journeys.  It is also an amazing testament to their resilience and sense of hope for the future.”
Kate Kruller Council President, Tukwila City Council 

"Reading the book, looking at the poets' beautiful faces fills me with hope. Thank you for creating spaces for them to believe in themselves. Thank you for inspiring us!"

WA State Poet Laureate Claudia Castro Luna
