Reach Out Los Angeles launches new “Pen & Purpose” club at El Segundo High School

Written By Roman Aytür

We are thrilled to announce the launch of the “Pen & Purpose” club at El Segundo High School. Students will collaborate with Reach Out LA volunteers, using real interviews, surveys, stories, and data trends. From there, they’ll publish articles that draw attention to the matter while pushing for change.

All articles will be published right here on our website, giving students a platform to share their writing with a real world audience. This initiative will give students valuable writing experience and empower students to use their voice and storytelling as a tool for awareness and change.

Please stay tuned for future articles!
