Take Action Teen Club
by: Cola City Homeschoolers
Spring 2025
For tweens/teens 12+
Education is 2 parts: Learning about the world around us and learning about ourselves–so we know how we fit into the world. We’ve been inspired by recent conversations about the pressures of achievement culture, the loneliness epidemic, and the fragmentation of community connectedness. We’ve found a vision for a world where service to others could take center stage in people’s lives, rather than the anxiety-ridden race for personal achievement.
A growing body of research has found that people with high levels of mattering—those who both feel valued by others and feel that they are adding value to the world—are more likely to thrive in adolescence and adulthood. Take Action club offers teens/tweens intentional activities:
- to learn about themselves and their personal strengths and abilities.
- to make meaningful connections to the local community–and the world around us.
- And have FUN!
Let’s inspire our teens into ACTION for the SPRING Session so they’ll be implementing projects and activities for each other and for younger siblings.
Each club session has a separate registration form and participation fee. Meets on 1st/3rd Wednesdays from 12:30-2:30 at the Unitarian Universal Church, 2701 Heyward St, Columbia, SC 29205. (Let Grow Play Club on 2nd/4th Wednesdays ages 8+, various locations).
