Support & Resources

Life may throw a curveball, but you don’t have to face it alone. one·n·ten can help weave a safety net of support and resources to help you navigate life’s challenges.

one·n·ten has given me a space to be myself and make new friends. I attended Spark Schools at one·n·ten this year and the staff made it a safe environment for all of us. one·n·ten has also given me knowledge about the community and meeting people who had different stories than mine letting me learn more.
