Welcome! & 9/30 Youth Chat Recap

Thank you for visiting the SPAN Youth Hub. Here we will post a recap of the weekly SPAN youth chat that includes the highlights of the discussion and resources. And, feel free to connect with us through the youth-recommended comments section or email for contributions that could be featured on the blog. 

On our last youth chat, Wed., 9/30, we shared the first look of the blog's layout and theme. A visually appealing background with yellow, green, and blue color tones, as you can see! Other notable inclusions are the "Report Abuse" button, found in the sidebar menu (upper right on PC and mobile).  Use this feature to report any inappropriate and offensive material to alert the authors of the SPAN Youth Hub for removal. We strive for a safe, and positive space here in the Hub. And, you can find links to the SPAN weekly youth chat, YouTube channel, and website in the sidebar. 

This wraps up the first recap. Join us for new posts every Thursday! Want to join us for the youth chat as well? Register now in the link below.

Summer Bonds That Last Beyond the Season, featuring Waze To Adulthood

Summer is a great time to spend more time with friends and even make new ones. Without school, homework, and busy schedules, you have more freedom to hang out and do fun things together. You could go to the beach, have a picnic in the park, or just sit outside on a warm evening talking and laughing. The long days and warm weather make it easier to enjoy each other’s company and grow closer as friends.
