“Skills for a FAB Life,” (S4FL) is a project of Fab Youth Philly where we offer teens the
“How to’s, insider knowledge, and tips for being successful on your own terms!”
via virtual and in-person workshops and guest speakers.
How often have you heard an adult say "Kids these days don't know how to...."?
Or maybe you are one of those adults who says this. We hear you!
That's why we've created a bi-monthly (virtual for now) workshops on a wide range of "adulting 101" skills presented by adults, just like you.
We also partner with our teens to serve as hosts and facilitators on various topics.
Below you can watch videos of previous S4FL workshops.
