Warrior Writers

Warrior Writers is a grassroots national organization based out of Philadelphia dedicated to supporting veterans. Warrior Writers’ mission is to provide a creative community for artistic expression amongst veterans to aid in healing and to raise awareness about veterans’ issues. By providing a supportive and expressive community, Warrior Writers helps veterans with the difficult transition back into civilian life, using the cathartic art-making process. Warrior Writers hosts writing and artistic workshops where veterans come together to make works that address their experiences in the military and overseas. These works are compiled and showcased through books, performances and exhibits that provide a lens into the hearts of those who have experienced war and to educate the public about veterans’ experiences. Through Warrior Writers, veterans reflect on their experiences, share their thoughts and creative works, are empowered as artists.
