About this Event
When Your World Changes: Teen Space After the Eaton Canyon Fire
A Place to Just Be You - Teen Support Social Kickback
The Eaton Canyon Wildfire turned our community upside down. When everything feels different, sometimes what you need most is to be around others who truly get it.
We've created a judgment-free zone just for teens affected by the fire—somewhere to catch your breath, share your story (only if you want to), express yourself, or simply hang out with others who understand what you're going through. No schedules to follow, no expectations—just an afternoon to be with people who don't need explanations.

Date: Saturday, April 5th, 2025
Time: 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM

What's Happening
- Chill zones with comfy seating
- Music that doesn't suck
- Art supplies to create
- Games to distract or connect
- Support circles (totally optional)
- Pizza, snacks & drinks (because food helps)
- Free stuff to take home
This is your space. Want to vent about what happened? Go for it. Rather create art? We've got supplies. Just want to sit somewhere quiet eating pizza? Perfect. Need to play games or make TikToks with new friends? That works too. However you need to process this—we're here for it.
Who's This For?
This is for you if the Eaton Canyon fire turned your world upside down:
- Did you lose your home? We can't imagine how hard that is, but we're here.
- Were you forced to evacuate? The chaos and uncertainty is real - let us help.
- Are you just shaken up by what our community's going through? Your feelings matter and we are here for you to as we navigate the new norm.
No one should have to face this alone - especially not you.
Parents & Community Members
For Parents: We get that you need support too. Hang out in our Parent Lounge with snacks, coffee, resources, and a chance to connect with others who understand what you're going through.
Want to Help Make This Happen? We could use:
- Cool stuff for teen swag bags (gift cards, journals, etc.)
- Sponsors to help cover costs
- Partners who want to join forces
- Volunteers for the event (staying to help? awesome!)
