Announcing our first teen program

“Empower is what you want the world to look like. It’s a place where everyone feels accepted and loved. It’s a community that is so willing to have so much fun, but also talk about the hard things and the hard moments… and we all do it from a place of love and we want to help you and know that you are not alone.

I just know I need a group of people who get what I’m going through. Because it’s lonely when you don’t have people who get that.  I told my parents that it was the most at home I have felt in a place that wasn’t my own home.

It was just a life changing experience and I think it was just the best experience of my life.”
