*A Bit About the SCBWI*



*We’ve been around awhile.* Founded in 1971, the Society of Children’s Book
Writers and Illustrators is the only international organization
specifically for authors and illustrators of children’s literature.



*We Have High Standards. *Only authors and illustrators published by
traditional publishing houses are eligible for full membership.



*Our Claim to Fame.* The SCBWI Board of Advisors includes some of the most
prestigious names in children’s literature and there are currently more
than 22,000 members worldwide in over 70 regional chapters.



*Our Mission* is to support the creation and availability of quality
children’s books around the world and act as a consolidated voice for
writers and illustrators of children’s books worldwide. The SCBWI not only
sponsors multiple conferences and events, providing its members with vital
information on writing craft and business, it also presents many grants and
awards including the annual *Golden Kite Award* for the best fiction and
nonfiction and the *Sid Fleischman Award for Humor.*
