“This has been one of the best summers I’ve ever had because it taught me about friendship, teamwork and hard work.”

– TeamWorks Youth Employee

We help change the lives of youth by giving them the space and opportunities to do amazing things. We don’t make the trail for them, but we give them the tools and skills.

Our mission at TEENS, Inc. is to support, educate, and empower youth and their families. We want to help young people make healthy choices and thrive — while giving them skills to succeed in the workforce and as a person.

At Chinook West High School, Lookout Mountain Academy, and New Explorer’s Learning Center, we provide critical educational resources for a wide, Colorado mountain community. Through our programs we serve more than 350 children and teens each year ranging in age from 2.5 to 21 years old.

But we couldn’t do it without you — and during this time of the year, we’re asking for your help.

Please consider donating to TEENS, Inc. from Nov 1 through Dec 6. Your support goes further during this time thanks to matching funds from the Community First Foundation. There are also some amazing tax benefits as long as you donate before the end of the year (TEENS, Inc. is eligible for Colorado’s generous childcare tax credit [see infosheet])
