Happy Crew Is
Our story dives into the real struggles of teens dealing with loneliness and self-worth. Happy Crew was formed in 2007 because we understand teenagers, we "get" them, and we are passionate about supporting them.
Every Monday night from 7-8pm, the Crew meets to share tools for riding emotional waves and building inner strength and resilience. During these meetings, teens bridge the gap from feeling alone to fitting right in. They discover that they are no longer solo in their battles, finding connection, belonging, and their own path right here.
At Happy Crew, we create a community where everyone matters and everyone belongs. It's straightforward: through our support and shared experiences, teens find a place where they truly fit in and feel valued.

Our Journey
In 2012, our county, Douglas County, experienced a tragic spike in teen suicides, with eight teenagers lost in one school year. Determined to make a difference, a group of high school students, decided to take action with one unified voice: “No more on our watch.” They gathered at Einsteins Bagels in Castle Rock, where they planned to connect with affected students in their schools, handing out candy bars emblazoned with the words “YOU MATTER.” Through listening, laughing, and connecting, they began to make a positive impact.
