Welcome to the Inland Area Writing Project (IAWP). The Inland Area Writing Project is a university-based, teacher-centered, professional development organization. Hosted by the University of California, Riverside, the IAWP is a member of a state (California Writing Project) and a national network (National Writing Project) of writing projects. We have a history of proven success since the late 1970s and are dedicated to improving writing and learning in the schools of the Inland Area. To best serve teachers of writing at all levels, from the primary grades up through the first two years of higher education, the IAWP offers opportunities for high-quality, research-based, professional development and support for educators while always keeping in mind the Writing Project axiom "Teachers Teaching Teachers."
Congratulations to the Bay Area Writing Project and the California Writing Project, which are celebrating their 35th anniversary of improving student writing and learning by improving the teaching of writing.
