The Writing and Art Challenge was created, in 2018, by the Montgomery County Women’s Center as an avenue for teens to start talking about dating & relationships. It is meant to create a safe environment to explore and discuss the impacts (both positive and negative) of common dynamics found in these experiences. Montgomery County Women’s Center has been proudly serving Montgomery and surrounding counties for over 40 years. Our mission is to lead the effort in preventing domestic violence and sexual assault through crisis intervention, assistance, advocacy, empowerment, and social change.
