Where You Can Connect, Share, and Level Up Together!

The FORT Hangout offers a safe and supportive space for teens to connect with other teens in person, reducing feelings of isolation and helping them realize they are not alone. ​

Teens Lead the Way

Teens are given a safe space to chat about things on their minds, whether school, identity, life stressors, or anything else important to them, and are moderated by a mental health professional who can offer additional emotional support. All personal information is confidential.

This program is for teens who want support and are willing to support each other and engage with the group.

The FORT Teen Hangout Presents:

Kick it and keep it real together! 

Join us for a FREE workshop that helps boys grow on and off the field

November 15th from 10am-12pm

Join international pro soccer player + coach and sports psychotherapist Dave “Ted” Edwards for a unique workshop that blends soccer, creativity, and real conversations about confidence and authenticity.

Boys will:
• Build new soccer skills and teamwork
• Design their own “mask” and talk about the ones we all wear
• Learn how to show up as their true, confident selves
• Connect with great mentors and new friends

This isn’t just a soccer clinic — it’s about helping boys grow into kind, confident young men who lead with heart. 

Participants must wear soccer or athletic shoes suitable for an indoor basketball court. Delicious snacks will be served. You must register to attend. Free of charge.
