Testimonials: Organizations
Before becoming an LLC, Poetry on Demand Outreach hosted workshops and events with various organizations, leaving lasting impressions!!
"Jereni assembled a wonderfully diverse community and encouraged participants from a wide spectrum of experience to tap into their creativity, goals, and intentions through written expression. The vibe she created as facilitator enabled everyone to feel affirmed and empowered. The exercises Jereni guided the group through provided me with valuable skills for my personal and professional life!"
Susan Shields Grant, Founder Black Women's Empowerment Circle
Cheree, aka Jereni-Sol is extremely professional, warm & magnificently creative! It was amazing how she analyzed each participant's poem. Her attention to detail is excellent. Cheree communicated effectively by active listening. Her creative skills are phenomenal! She kept us uplifted and feeling lighter as we shared and released. There was a special bond of unity that each of us experienced. We came away with a feeling of pride and confidence! It's was an awesome & therapeutic experience!

​Jereni-Sol’s prompts are extremely unique and I always leave with some dope pieces! I love her workshops because I never know what to expect - she keeps us on our toes to say the least. Can’t wait for the next one !!!

Testimonials from PoD Members
Poetry on Demand Outreach began in 2015 as a Bronx-based writing group. Before we became an LLC, some of our core attendees grew into a loyal community of members. Here’s what they have to say about our workshops:
I so look forward to attending Jereni Sol's Poetry on Demand sessions! Each session is a unique revelation of each participant! I never fail to learn. I don't always create a piece but I continue to be intrigued!!! Just being together, sharing, bonding, laughing, growing and shedding tears if we are so moved!!! Jereni Sol is fire!!! She breaks it all down in her amazing way!!!

After a long day of work, this was just what I needed to decompress and reflect. Being in community with others who were expressing their creativity was uplifting and replenishing. Thank you Jereni-Sol, you did it again!!
Susan S. PoD Member since 2015
It was wonderful. So much positive energy, and the writing prompt was inspirational. I enjoyed the time to write, get feedback, and listen to everyone's wonderful poems. I highly recommend Jereni-Sol's workshops!
Carla Cherry, PoD Member since 2015
As a rapper, it was an incredible experience to hear the thoughts and words of people expressing such deep ideas. It has definitely inspired me to become more of an emotional writer than just focusing on the technical aspects of rhyme and word art. Great group. Fun time.
Dyno Lzb, PoD Member since 2015
