TEEN Program Testimonials

Teen Programs

Over the past ten years, we have worked with a variety of foundations to develop and implement programs designed specifically for teenagers. All of these programs offer opportunities to develop leadership skills, strengthen resilience and enrich support networks by connecting teens with others as they navigate the collective changes impacting their lives. Ultimately, our programs turn connections into relationships, promoting a supportive peer community intended to exist beyond the program.
