What is it?
We offer a fun, substance-free, and judgment-free space for games, art, music, outings, and
opportunities to learn about topics or skills that are important to you. We provide free snacks,
drinks, and light meals too! Youth are welcome to drop in as guests for up to three visits, and
then decide whether to continue on as a Member. Members then also participate in a weekly
Circle, where you share what’s on your mind without judgement or “counseling.”
Our staff are diverse and represent different cultures and religions. They are not therapists – they are listeners and supporters.
