HELPING YOUTH, FAMILIES & COMMUNITIES NAVIGATE WHAT’S NEXT

At N The Meantime, we help people navigate transitions with confidence, purpose and practical support. Through youth development, workforce readiness, housing stability & family engagement, we create opportunities that empower those we serve and strengthen communities.

We understand that navigating education, career pathways, family responsibilities, financial stability and life transitions can often feel overwhelming without the right support and connections.

VIRTUAL SUMMER CAMP AFTER DARK

N The Meantime's Virtual Summer Camp After Dark: Essential Life Skills Training (ELST) is a comprehensive, outcomes-based Life Skills and Mentorship Program designed to bridge the gap between adolescence and adulthood by helping young people develop the confidence, knowledge, and practical skills needed to thrive in school, work, relationships, and everyday life.

Designed for youth and young adults ages 14–24, this engaging virtual experience supports participants as they prepare for their next chapter—whether that includes high school success, college, trade school, entrepreneurship, workforce development, independent living, or personal growth.

Through interactive virtual workshops, mentorship, guided discussions, real-world application, and small-group learning experiences, participants gain access to valuable tools, resources, and support systems that promote long-term success both personally and professionally.
