Yes. LiFT is completely free for participating families. Lunch, snacks, workshop materials, and a take-home resource guide are included. Each participant also receives a $50 gift card at the end of the workshop.

LiFT is designed for teens ages 13–19 and at least one supportive adult. Supportive adults can include parents, grandparents, foster parents, guardians, mentors, or other trusted caregivers. LiFT welcomes all families and is committed to creating a safe, supportive, and judgment-free environment for everyone, including LGBTQ+ youth, caregivers, and families.

Yes. LiFT is designed as a shared experience for teens and their trusted adults. Families participate together throughout the workshop through guided conversations, activities, and group discussions. Attendance as a pair is required.

LiFT helps families navigate conversations around relationships, communication, boundaries, values, decision-making, and sexual health in a way that feels supportive, approachable, and age-appropriate.

LiFT includes interactive activities, games, guided discussions, and hands-on learning led by trained facilitators. The workshop is designed to feel welcoming and engaging—not like a lecture or classroom-style training.

The extended format gives families time to move beyond surface-level conversation and build stronger connection without feeling rushed. Families consistently tell us the time goes by quickly and that the experience is worth the investment.

No one is required to share anything they are uncomfortable discussing. LiFT is designed to create a safe, respectful, and judgment-free environment where families can participate at their own comfort level.
