At Unbound Authors, we believe everyone has a story — and that storytelling is more powerful when we do it together.
If you’re a reader, writer, creative, organizer, or just someone who believes in second chances and strong communities, we’d love to have you with us.
What to Expect
Every member of our program team begins with remote feedback.
Before anyone joins us inside a correctional facility, we ask volunteers to spend time reading and responding to writing from our participants. It’s the best way to learn our approach, understand our community, and decide whether this work is the right fit.
If it’s a good fit, additional opportunities may include facilitating writing labs, supporting publications, mentoring writers, and contributing to special projects.
After you submit the interest form, our Programs Coordinator will contact you to schedule a brief conversation and walk you through the next steps.
