The Academy hosts a wealth of online resources, including discussion forums, pedagogical & critical essays about poetry, lesson Plans, biographic profiles of poets, and thousands of poems. View the profiles of Marilyn Nelson and Jimmy Santiago Baca.

Funded, in part, by the generous donations of Poets.org readers, a teen homepage has been created, featuring reading recommendations, writing advice, spotlight audio and video recordings, as well as opportunities to get involved in grassroots poetry projects.
