I arrived at Mission High School, in San Francisco, in the winter of the new year 2020, to meet a new world of young writers that I had never met before. I didn’t know the terrain but I trusted the map used to get there as well as my newly introduced and passionate guides, the older writers and teachers of our young people who are often the great unsung navigators of our youth across the great flowering deserts of our planet. Even before I met them I knew I wouldn’t have enough time with them and I had no idea how to get to know them as well as I wanted to know them, in only one afternoon of legend and mapmaking. I wondered as I walked to their door if they were feeling what I had been feeling of late about the quality of the hot air coming from so many of the adults standing in the lights of cameras and microphones speaking glibly of what the world was quickly becoming. In their electric presence I talked about the weather and wondered if they might be able to see the tide pools between their own emotions and some evocative weather words. I lost my place because they were so beautiful sitting there in their high-altitude poetry and prose space suits ready for whatever I had to offer them. We spent the afternoon in love with words and ways of saying. We talked about the world and looked directly at each other and said true things and hard to say things in that way people who fall in and out of love often do. And later that day before we left each other for good, like people in love sometimes have to do, we came to a quiet mountain climbing understanding 1 that what we had shared, in that sun-filled space, was something akin to dis- covering a mighty new world, one whose golden fields of grain weren’t just promotional advertising for a world that might one day be. But were instead a kind of real food—that fed each of us sitting and standing there together. The recognition of our kinship made us plump and invincible for the world we knew we would soon have to reenter without the other. There was a grav- itational pull in the room—for any of us who allowed our hearts to listen and lean in. I thought of the other high schools and the other young writers all across the San Francisco city nesting more young wordsmiths I would not get to stand before and listen to. I flew back to the land from which I had come, patiently waiting to see what their great hearts might lay out before the sandy page. Unequivocally. These young writers are riders of the big wave, conquis- tadors and matadors and watchful grandmothers of the ocean of the heart. In their writing they tell what they know of what it means to be alive. They lead us to their magnificent “little circles of families hanging outside their residences” and they allow us to hear how fiercely they hold on to all of who they are. These young writers have worked their air tubes into the seven layers of the Earth’s atmosphere and have found their purest breath. They have dug their pens down deep into the good soil in order to teleport us back to a mag- ical time when they were standing in the plazuela with their “crazy uncles” and everyone was wearing a red jersey and waiting for the moment to ride through the mud together. And how in that moment “they looked like a field of roses all packed in one place.” I am now three thousand miles away from this new human planet of young writers. I swallow easy and hard at what they are writing about their place on this Earth at this time. I turn the pages carefully in order to not to miss one word of what they feel. I hear them say that we do a lot of standing on the Earth and how we need to make more time to listen to what it has to tell us. I hear them say the American dream is over there somewhere. I hear them speak of growing up Jewish and not wanting to be firebombed while in synagogue.

Modeled after 826 Valencia (founded in 2002 by Dave Eggers and Nínive Calegari in San Francisco’s Mission District), 826NYC is located in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn and is fronted by the world famous Brooklyn Superhero Supply Store. The revenues from the store support 826NYC and its student programming. 826NYCs work is based on the understanding that great leaps in learning can happen with one-on-one attention, and that strong writing skills are fundamental to future success. Through the work of talented staff and the assistance of more than 1,000 volunteers, 826NYC provides after-school tutoring, class field trips, writing workshops, in-schools programs (including special projects and full-time staffing of a writers’ at the Williamsburg Library), journal and book publication, and college preparation—all free of charge. 826NYC is especially committed to supporting teachers and publishing student work. 826 tutoring and literacy centers are in seven other cities—San Francisco, Los Angeles, Ann Arbor, Chicago, Seattle, Boston, and Washington, DC. These eight chapters operate under the umbrella of 826 National, which coordinates the work of the chapters, implements best practices as established by the chapters and the 826 National board, and raises funds to support the work of 826 National and the chapters. 826 was chosen by GOOD Magazine as one of the top 30 companies to work at. 826NYC, the other seven chapters, and 826 National are separate 501(c)(3) organizations with their own boards of directors.

For each city, the range presented for each variable is the low-estimate (10th percentile) to high-estimate (90th percentile) across 35 GCMs and two RCPs for temperature and precipitation projections (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5). Sea level rise projections are based on a four-component methodology that uses data from 24 GCMs and two RCPs (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5) and values are presented for only coastal cities1.

In the process, students are placed in decision-making roles, developing critical thinking skills as they collaborate with instructors and peers. TEACHER & CLASSROOM SUPPORT Our goal is to be a resource to teachers through field trips to our writing centers, in-school programs, and specialized workshops. Bringing our programs to the classroom directly supports teachers as they inspire their students to write.
