About Youth Quake



This year’s YQ team is small but mighty.

With new YQ director Kait Giddings and interns, Ava, Adam, Caleb, and Emma, YQ@Home will hopefully be the YQ experience you know and love all from the safety of your home.

Kait and her four interns have worked diligently to provide all aspects of YQ@Home package for you and your group to enjoy throughout the month of February. This year of prep has looked much different (with much less paint & poly), but has included a lot more creativity. The YQ team is excited for you to participate in YQ@Home and engage with every aspect in some way to make the most of your experience. We know this past year has been consistent in change but we want to provide stability in your programing for the whole month of February.

Kait is excited for you to experience Youth Quake in a whole new way and hopes YQ@Home feels like YQ has come to you.
