WELCOME TO YOUTH WITH A FUTURE

Southglenn

In Southglenn, many young people have the passion and potential to lead but lack the resources and support needed to thrive. At Youth With A Future (YWAF), we’re changing that through teen leadership development programs built to equip Southglenn youth with purpose, confidence, and community.

Empowering Southglenn’s Youth

Empowering Tomorrow’s Leaders in Southglenn

We’re not waiting for the future — our teens are learning to lead right now. Through mentorship, real-world experience, and character-building workshops, students gain the tools to make a difference in their schools, families, and neighborhoods.

To support that growth, we rent different facilities based on the size, format, and goals of each program. This flexible approach allows us to deliver high-quality experiences without being tied to a single location.

This is leadership development for young people in Southglenn that works. It’s hands-on, heart-led, and rooted in the belief that every teen deserves a chance to lead.

ABOUT YWAF IN SOUTHGLENN

Teen Leadership Development That Changes Lives

Southglenn is filled with smart, resilient, and motivated teens—but too many go unnoticed. That’s why we’re here. YWAF is committed to building leadership from the inside out—starting with the teens who call Southglenn home.

When you support our programs, you’re investing in teen leadership development that creates ripple effects across generations. You’re helping teens become mentors, role models, and advocates for their communities.

Our programs focus on:

  • Mentorship from trusted adults and community members
  • Workshops on communication, decision-making, and purpose-driven leadership
  • Community service and volunteer opportunities
  • Faith-based guidance for teens looking to lead with values

Every session, activity, and conversation is designed to build up confidence and character in our youth. Because when teens believe in their ability to lead, they influence others to believe too.
