Our Purpose

Our purpose is to support local teens in 5th grade through 12th grade by providing a safe afterschool space. We partner with local organizations to ensure our students receive healthy balanced meals, and also educate the community on the benefit of safe spaces for teens who identify as part of the LGBT+ community. One of our partnerships includes working with Salvation Farms, a gleaning operation based in Lamoille County. They provide fresh produce for our teens, many of whom are food insecure and don't always have access to healthy options including fruits and veggies.
