Teen Hangout Nights!
Announcement: We’re excited to share a new community initiative launching this December: FREE Saturday evening drop-in events designed to give middle and high school youth a safe, relaxed, and judgment-free space to simply BE.
What Teen Hangout Night Is:
Teen Hangout Night is a collaborative effort created by the Safe Spaces Action Team with Team Up and local youth-serving organizations. Our goal is to offer teens consistent, accessible weekend spaces where they can unwind, connect with friends, meet new people, and enjoy free snacks in a casual, low-pressure environment.
When & Where:
Beginning December 6th, 2025, Teen Hangout Nights will be held every Saturday evening, rotating among four community sites: Off The Bench, Cortez Recreation Center, Bitterblossom Games and the Cortez Public Library.
A full schedule for December and January can be found on the Team Up website Teen Hangout page, or by scanning the QR code.
Why This Matters:
Local partners identified the need for unstructured, welcoming weekend spaces for youth. Teen Hangout Nights were created to meet that need by providing a consistent weekly option that is free, safe, and teen-centered.
How You Can Help:
Please share this information with your networks, youth, families, and any programs or groups who may benefit. Physical flyers are also available upon request.
Thank you for helping us get the word out and supporting spaces where local teens can connect, decompress, and feel welcome!
