Meet Teens for Tomorrow (TFT)
Our members are diverse and come from many different backgrounds. We all joined TFT for different reasons: some of us have had family members with substance use, some of us struggled ourselves with substance use and don't want our peers to have to learn the hard way, some of us have seen the issue of substance use in our communities' youth, some of us are worried about what we are seeing with vaping trends, some of us are worried about what we see on social media and are passionate about working towards prevention.
We work together to discuss and create projects that seek to reduce substance use in Clark County. We have TFT Peer Educators from every school district in Clark County. If you would like to find out who serves on TFT in your school district, you can reach out to our coordinator Alaina Green at [email protected]

Aananth Hi, my name is Aananth and this is my third year at Teens for Tomorrow. I am a part of Teens for Tomorrow because I support their mission and like the TFT community. My coping mechanism would be practicing soccer. It might just be because I am a soccer player but there is just something soothing about when you are by yourself, playing soccer with some music in your ear. Besides loving soccer, going outside, working out, and watching Netflix on Fridays. Linnea Program Assistant - My name is Linnea, and my role is to help Teens for Tomorrow with whatever they need as they work to make a difference in our community. TFT members do some awesome stuff, so I feel lucky to have a front row seat! When I'm not helping out here, I like to spend time outside gardening, hiking, and hanging out with my dog and my ducks. |
Aanya Hi! My name is Aanya and I’m 13 years old, and this is my first year with TFT. My hobbies are dancing, reading, and playing viola. I learned about TFT from a close family friend and I knew instantly I wanted to join to make a difference in my community. I’m excited to get to know everyone more, and help out as many people as I can! |
Leo I enjoy making cosplays and I inspire to be a writer. When I’m feeling stressed, I like to listen to music, pace, and read. Because of TFT, I learned to be more comfortable with public speaking. I used to hate it, but now I’ve spoken in front of hundreds of people. I am passionate about fighting for the rights of trans people. Stephen I like to hangout with my friends, listen to music, and work out. When I’m stressed, I like to take naps anywhere (even on floors and couches), talk to friends, and watch Netflix. My favorite thing about TFT is the sense of community, the positive environment, and the drive down to our meetings. |
