Transform lived experience into authorship, voice, and opportunity

Many youth aging out of foster care face significant barriers to healing and stability. Without safe spaces to process their experiences, they're at risk of homelessness, unemployment, and unmet mental health needs. We're here to change that.

Help us launch Scribe Publishing Inc's inaugural Ink and Insights event coming this September

Scribe Publishing Inc. is a new publishing initiative committed to uplifting the voices of children and young adults impacted by foster care—especially those aging out of protective services without consistent support systems.

Letter from our Founder

Young people in foster care have powerful stories to tell. At Scribe, we provide the safe spaces, mentorship, and publishing platforms they need to reclaim their narratives and build a brighter future.

Through structured storytelling and guided publishing, we help youth heal, gain confidence, and develop the skills they need to thrive—because their voices matter, and they deserve to be heard.

Sincerely,
Dr. Shelitha Lisa Peppers Founder and CEO
Former Foster Care Youth
