A program like the one reported here could potentially lessen the gap existent in the availability of authentic literature written by Latina/os and could ignite a whole new group of readers and writers that can speak to the unique experiences they bring to this country--be it through a different cultural or linguistic lens or through the sharing of stories which would have otherwise gone unheard.
