  • Format: (000) 000-0000.
    • Skills and Chill 

    • Join us for a flexible, half-day meet-up at the SOY office on Tuesday, June 16th! Mentors and mentees can participate in one or both of our interactive workshops—plus enjoy time together with games, activities, and dinner. If a mentor is not able to attend, a mentee may attend with one parent or guardian (not the whole family). 

      • Location: Save Our Youth office (3443 W. 23rd Ave. Denver, CO 80211) 
      • We’re partnering with Realizing Aptitudes to offer: 
        1. Character Strengths workshop from 3:30-4:45pm: Uncover & Activate Your Strengths! You will learn what your signature strengths are, practice spotting strengths in each other, and learn how to put your strengths into action. 
        2. A Teen Job Workshop from 5:45-7:15pm for mentees aged 14+ focused on vital skills needed for a successful job hunt. These skills include recognizing suitable opportunities, navigating the job search process, effectively using online resources, and proficiently completing applications and interview preparations. 
      • Dinner will be provided between workshops. 
      • Before, after, or in between workshops, matches can hang out at the office to enjoy games, billiards, darts, cornhole, basketball, and/or a creative art project. We will have these options open from 2-8pm. 
      • You’re welcome to attend one workshop, both workshops, or simply come to connect and enjoy activities  
    • Skills & Chill – Who plans to attend the event?
    • Skills & Chill – Which parts of the event will you attend?
    • Future “U”: Campus Exploration Day 

    • Get ready to explore your future! Join us for a fun, interactive day at the Auraria Campus (CCD, CU Denver, and MSU Denver). Tour all three schools, hear from current SOY scholars who attend each, enjoy lunch, and take on a campus scavenger hunt.  
       
      The event will be on Wednesday, July 22nd from 10am-2pm (you will need to arrive by 9:30am). 
       
      This experience is open to all mentees—middle and high schoolers alike—because it’s never too early to start seeing yourself in college. 
       
      Mentors are encouraged to attend! If not able to, a mentee may attend with one parent or guardian (not the whole family). Participants are responsible to get to/from the Auraria Campus. Additional details (you'll get a code for free parking, exact meeting location, etc.) will be emailed to registered participants closer to the event date.
