South Central Kansas Writing Project (SCKWP) is located at Wichita State University, Wichita, Kansas.

This local site is one of 195 sites located at universities in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U. S. Virgin Islands.

Each university site partners with local schools to improve teacher writing and the teaching of writing in order to improve student writing and learning.

The umbrella organization that provides funding, direction, structure, management, and encouragement for all of the 195 sites is the NWP.
