The Illinois Writing Project (IWP) provides professional development on teaching writing, reading and the application of both skills for learning across the curriculum and across whole schools.

Affiliated with the National Writing Project and directed by NEIU's Dr. Katy Smith along with Dr. Steve Zemelman, the IWP serves Chicago and all of northern Illinois.
