The Office of Letters and Light, the nonprofit behind NaNoWriMo, is also in charge of the Young Writers Program, which is a version of the NaNoWriMo challenge for children and teenagers. The YWP also creates and distributes educational materials for teachers to use in classrooms if they want their students to tackle the program. (Young writers can choose how much to write versus being tied to the 50,000-word requirement.) In addition to the YWP, the Office of Letters and Light is in charge of NaNo University, a similar initiative for teachers who want to use NaNoWriMo in a college classroom, and Camp NaNoWriMo, a summer program which lets writers try their hand at the challenge in June or August.
