Youth² (Youth Squared) is a free, low-barrier youth drop-in designed with youth, not for them.
This is a space for connection, creativity, leadership, and real conversations — with snacks, games, art, and time to just be yourself. Youth² centers youth voice, choice, and community, guided by the values of “Power With, not Power Over” and “Nothing for us, without us.”
Whether you want to hang out, make something, talk, listen, or just exist — you belong here.
✨ What to expect:
• Weekly youth drop-ins
