ABOUT US

A Place For Teens is a non-profit organization that is governed by a board that is half adults and half teens. Every officer position is filled by an adult and by a teen. 

Teen and adult board members work with adult and teen and community leaders to put on concerts, plan themed parties, organize outdoor adventures such as paint-ball and ski-trips, and do community service.

A Place For Teens is an umbrella organization that provides...

 

  • The Venue teen center facility for special events, private party rental and drop-in during the school year.
  • Under 21 Club music by and for local teens at The Los Gatos Coffee Roasting Company
  • Teen & Youth Collaborative website for all community teen info. (coming soon)
  • Volunteer opportunities staffing for concerts, community events, and SafeRides. 
Dedicated to the development of responsibility, character, connection, and value in our teens, A Place For Teens is a community funded non-profit organization that has been serving teens in Los Gatos and Monte Sereno for the past 20 years.
