Originality Statement

Voices Unheard is a platform for individuals to share their own stories and lived experiences. That being said, we do not accept any submissions that use generative AI, nor do we accept submissions that weren't written entirely by you. We do accept submissions that have been published elsewhere, but we ask that you provide the publisher's information so that we can credit them as well. Lastly, any submissions that do not meet these guidelines will be subject to removal from the Voices Unheard platform.
