OneCity Stories, a program sponsored by the Gateway Writing Project at the University of Missouri-St. Louis (USML), brings together St. Louis-area high schoolers from across the socioeconomic and geographic spectrum to develop their writing and multimedia skills. The program was originally made possible through an LRNG Innovators challenge grant created through a partnership between LRNG, powered by Collective Shift, the National Writing Project, and John Legend’s Show Me Campaign.
