Join Our SPOT to connect with teens and recreation leaders. 

Our SPOT is a FREE after-school program for teens ages 12-18, providing a fun, safe and supportive place where teens can check-in daily, Monday through Friday all year long. Programming takes on a strength-based approach engaging youth from our communities to explore their unique and collective lived experiences through various forms of recreation programming, visual arts sessions, social action activities, and educational field trips. Focus is placed on aiding teens in setting meaningful goals to accomplish individually and collaboratively through peer-to-peer leadership, art, special gatherings, and park engagement.

The Importance of Our SPOT

LA County Parks and Recreation teen out-of-school-time programs are deeply valued by youth and their families.  Our SPOT youth report feeling safer in their parks, connected to caring staff, happier and less stressed overall.  These programs are vital to building positive youth development and helping youth reach their full potential.  Situated throughout LA County parks, Our SPOTs are safe havens for teens to connect on societal issues they care about, take on social action projects, explore interests, take special interest classes, and socialize.  Youth also attend events like the Girls Empowerment Conference and Teen Summit.
