The teen and tween years are tough for EVERY person, no matter your upbringing, background, or circumstances. Our goal is to teach young people how to develop the personal tools and resources to cope with many situations. Teens report more self-confidence and happiness after our classes and events.

I’ve always had trouble with friendships in the past. I never knew how to see when a friend was toxic before it was too late. This camp really helped me find the red flags in a friendship and since then, I have saved myself from many other toxic friendships. The skincare stuff we did was also a life saver, and my acne is so much better now. So is my self confidence!!
This program teaches important life skills. I benefitted most from the positive self talk and about not using labels.
