20 years ago, Street Poets launched its first poetry workshop at Camp Fred Miller, an L.A. County Probation facility for boys. Today, the organization reaches over 750 boys and girls throughout Los Angeles County’s school and probation systems, and reaches thousands more via their Poetry in Motion van.
