Helping High School Students Create Spaces of Belonging Through Small Group CommunitiesÂ
STUDENTS FOR STUDENTS GROUPS ARE:
PEER LED
AUTHENTIC
Students FOR Students is passionate about being a place where all students can be themselves. They get to know each other and realize they are often dealing with the same issues. The conversations are natural, organic, and REAL.
CONSISTENT
All small groups are led by trained upperclassmen and are composed of students from grades 9 - 12. This system allows students to be comfortable letting down their guard to have tough conversations with peers who are just a step or two ahead.
Groups meet on their high-school campus weekly or every other week. Consistency is the key to building deep connections and friendships. It’s a space students can count on to be a constant in their lives; a place where they are known and heard.

“Sometimes, you just want a break from school (and even your friends), and S4S provided that comfort for me. Thanks to my small group leaders who created such a safe space for everyone.“

“I loved leading a group of people my junior year and would love to do it again too! I enjoy being a leader to the underclassmen and talking to them to help them through the year. I believe it helps create community and improve other's mental health as well as my own through the friendships created.“
- Emily H.
“With increasing concern regarding mental wellness within the current youth, I think it is crucial to create a space that talks about issues regarding these subjects. I want to be a small group leader because not only do I want to be in a group that addresses mental well-being, but I also want to help lead the discussion with my group.“
- GRACE V.
