Common Thread

Mike chats with Executive Director Rachel Garrett. At Common Thread, we believe every teen deserves a place where they belong. We exist to fill the gaps left by traditional systems, creating safe spaces for Utah’s youth impacted by foster care and other vulnerable experiences. Through joy-filled events, mental health resources, and mentorship, we build resilience and empower teens to chart new paths forward. More than a nonprofit, we are a movement—led by teens, for teens—committed to breaking cycles and transforming futures. www.CommonThreadUt.com
