Altered Earth Press
Stories from the people living them.
Altered Earth Press is the publishing imprint of the US-Squared Research Institute. We publish real community stories — told from the lens of adolescents and the adults who hold them. Not case studies. Not curricula. Stories.
The story is the evidence.
The research shows patterns. The story shows the person inside the pattern. Altered Earth Press exists to hold both — to put community-centered, youth-voiced narratives into the hands of the educators, caregivers, and practitioners who need them most.
Every title we publish is grounded in the BASE Framework and rooted in the lived experiences of Black and Brown youth and the communities that surround them. We don't interpret their stories. We amplify them.
