PIVOT Voices

Through the PIVOT Voices Forum, our student writers are given a blog-style platform to share civic stories, issues they are passionate about, and current news that does not typically receive coverage. We ask our writers to address the open-ended question, “What are you passionate about, and why does this matter to you?”After the writing process, PIVOT Voices provides a talented editing team that works to polish articles and remove polarizing language that unfairly demonizes opposing opinions, an issue that divides our world today.
