🏆 Success stories 🏆
To kick off the year we celebrated the incredible team behind Spill The Tea Café. Together, we played games, created vision boards, and set powerful intentions for the year ahead. Reflecting on 2024, we’re proud of the lives we’ve saved and transformed, thanks to your unwavering support. As we step into 2025, our commitment to revolutionizing mental health is stronger than ever. We’re empowering youth to elevate their voices, own their power, and redefine success on their own terms.
💪 Strengthening Partnerships 💪
Spill The Tea Café continues to advocate for youth and families through impactful events and direct action. In February, we visited Governor Josh Green’s office to push for protections and resources for LGBTQIA+ youth amid recent policy changes. Joined by the Governor’s Policy Advisor and AG Solicitor General, we voiced the urgent need for support.
Executive Director, Haylin Dennison, also shared insights on workplace wellness at the Employment & Labor Law Forum and addressed harm reduction strategies for Native Hawaiian and LGBTQIA+ youth at the Hawai‘i State Harm Reduction Conference.
Advocacy is action, and we’re committed to ensuring Hawai‘i remains a place where all youth can thrive. 💙
With love and aloha,
Spill The Tea Cafe Team ❤️🧡💛💚💙
