What’s in a name?

For Colorado Springs Teen Court—a name meant brand confusion and a limited community perspective around the prevention services offered to youth and their families in need.

Grounded in the organization’s strategic initiative to grow their programming to support teens *before* they’re in trouble—we hit the trail running with a new name and brand.

Forge Evolution, formerly Colorado Springs Teen Court, was born from a spirit of hope and resilience. With a mission and mindset to develop a brand teens would resonate with—we extended Forge Evolution’s story to a brand new website that meets teens where they are.

Forge Evolution | Join the Evolution Forge Evolution empowers youth and their parents to foster resilient communities by inspiring accountability, empathy, and personal growth.

Founded in 2013, our flagship program designed to reduce food waste while increasing food access, quickly evolved into our “organism with a mission” — multi-faceted programming working together to cultivate a healthy, equitable food system in the greater Colorado Springs community. We know that food is an essential source of everyone’s power to work, play, serve, and live. Our mission is to transform every aspect of our food system into co-powerment and equity. From food, to power.
