# Merida Teens Club Blog

We're up to great things in and around the Merida, Yucatan community! We are a group of families with kids ages 13-17 who are dedicated to creating a space where expat, immigrant, and native Mexican teens can connect and find belonging. As parents, our goal is to help them feel connected to this city and this community in a way that helps them grow into global citizens. 

We do that by offering meet-ups, cultural explorations, classes, and social events.
