Writers Collective of Canada provides exploratory writing workshops in community, cultivating connection through story.
Through writing together, we empower every voice, celebrate every story, and change the world.
WCC was established as the Toronto Writers Collective (TWC), a non-profit corporation, in 2012. In 2018, the organization became a recognized charity. In 2020, the organization rapidly pivoted and expanded to virtual workshops and rebranded in 2021 as Writers Collective Canada to reflect the growth of its mission and demand for its offerings.
WCC nurtures a network of more than 250 trained volunteer facilitators and more than 100 partner agencies throughout Canada, including leading social service, community, and healthcare agencies. WCC has touched over 4,200 writers engaged in over 25,000 workshop experiences, celebrating voice inclusive of race, ethnicity, class, age, gender, sexual orientation, mental and physical ability, with a strong focus on underserved populations and traditionally unheard voices.
We believe everyone is a writer.
