Teens with Purpose (TWP) serves as a dynamic prelude to PWP, designed specifically for younger teens. The program emphasizes community engagement, purposeful connection, and personal growth, while maintaining the high-quality experiences, structure, and fun that families have come to expect from People with Purpose. Through meaningful activities, leadership opportunities, and a focus on social impact, TWP empowers teens to develop their voice, build community, and prepare for the next stage in their journey with confidence and purpose. TWP meets at Hand in Hand’s People with Purpose Clubhouse (1985 Spruce Hills Drive in Bettendorf) on school days from 2:45-5:00pm.

Participants attending TWP should arrange transportation from their high school/project search location to the PWP Clubhouse each day.

Summer hours will be 8:30am-2:00PM at the YWCA Empowerment Center (1115 Mississippi Ave in Davenport)
