Heart Haven OutReach (H2O) offers a variety of programs and activities for high school age youth year round. Except for some trips and activities that have a minimal cost, all of our services are free of charge. We also offer transportation to and from our programs. Please visit our FAQs page for more information.
"Talk it Out"
Every Monday after school, H2O staff will be available at Bolingbrook High School from 2:15 to 3:30 p.m. in the FOCUS Room (C118) to "talk out" student concerns and issues in a safe and friendly group atmosphere.
"Real Life"
Every Tuesday night from 7:00-8:30 at H2O, staff facilitate small groups where teens can come to talk about their feelings, struggles, and achievements. Real Life is a safe place where youth can be heard and know they are not alone. Teens learn to support their peers and to give and receive positive feedback. Doors open at 6:30.
"Good Clean Fun"
Every Wednesday we offer a different recreational activity at no or low cost. Activities include playing games, making crafts, going on field trips, and more. Space is limited on Wednesdays, so advanced sign-up is required. Call for details.
"Going Deeper"
Every Thursday night from 7:00-8:30 at H2O, staff address specific teen issues from a Christian perspective through games, activities, teaching, and group discussions. Topics vary, including subjects such as self esteem, conflict resolution, and drug resistance. Youth are reminded that they are capable of making positive choices as they are challenged to live a life of character. Doors open at 6:30.
"One-to-Ones"
Staff are available to meet with youth for one on one mentoring most days throughout the year. The purpose of one-to-ones is for the teen to develop a positive relationship with an adult who genuinely cares about him or her and who can provide personal support in dealing with life's pressures.
"You Got Served!"
On a regular basis we offer service opportunities and trips, which challenge youth to consider a reality beyond themselves and outside their comfort zones. Youth learn life-changing lessons as they discover they can make a positive difference in this world.
If you know of a person, family, or organization in need of service, please contact us.
"Healthy Families" Support Group for Pregnant and Parenting Teens
Unfortunately, due to the recent state budget cuts, Healthy Families will no longer be able to offer this group. The last meeting will be July 27 from 3:00-4:00 PM at H2O.
