Middle and high school students (ages 12–18) from the Issaquah School District team up in TECH (Teens Encouraging Community Health) to build leadership skills, learn about healthy choices, and create real change in their communities. Through your involvement with TECH, you’ll have opportunities to:
  • Meet with local and state leaders and advocate for change at Youth Advocacy Day
  • ​Inspire younger students at our Power of Me, Power of We conference
  • Spark creativity and community change through the Art with Influence contest
  • Earn volunteer hours or even pioneer your own project in partnership with TECH

Students in TECH have the chance to make a real, positive impact, both in their schools and throughout the community.

Welcome to TECH Talks a podcast run by a PNW based nonprofit called Teens Encouraging Community Health aka TECH. This podcast will shed some light on nuanced topics such as mental health and substance use issues. While we as teens are not certified professionals, but we’ve definitely experienced a thing or two in our day-to-day lives and we just want you to know that you’re not alone.
