About SMS Teen

SMS Teen is a monthly program created by Single Mom Strong with one group in mind: your teens.

As our children grow, their needs shift. They’re navigating more independence, more pressure, and more questions about who they are and where they’re headed.

We’ve heard from many of you that there aren’t enough safe spaces where teens can show up, feel comfortable, and connect in a positive environment. That’s why we launched SMS Teen.

This isn’t a night of lecturing or something that feels like an after-school program. It’s a practical, welcoming space where teens can connect, relax, and be themselves.

Teens will have the opportunity to:

Connect with peers who understand their experiences, or reconnect with friends they know through Single Mom Strong or EmpowerME

Relax and have fun in a safe, structured environment

Build confidence and a sense of belonging

Share their voice and help shape what comes
