Empowering Youth Through Creative Expression

​Our thrift store and creative workspace offer a unique environment where youth can explore business skills, creative expression, and community connection. Whether through our job training, entrepreneurship programs, volunteer opportunities, or art workshops, TAGS empowers teens and young adults to build confidence, resilience, and real-world skills.
​
As more youth face stress, anxiety, and depression, TAGS is a safe space where they can create, connect, and thrive. Our motto—“Create More, Stress Less”—reflects our mission to promote well-being, individuality, and positive change.
Join us in inspiring the next generation of creators and changemakers.
Teen Advocacy Going Strong (TAGS) is a woman-founded and led nonprofit creative reuse hub supporting diverse and underserved youth ages 13–24. At TAGS, we combine art, sustainability, and entrepreneurship to help young people grow through hands-on experience.

As young people navigate the challenges of transitioning into adulthood, TAGS offers a safe space to create, connect, and build skill for the future.
