what is tpm?
third place movement is a youth-led organization redefining public spaces by combining community power, design, and civic action. we combat the challenge of a lack of accessible infrastructure to foster community and social connection.
what is a third place?
a third place isn't home or work/school. a third place is a relaxed, welcoming, and connected space where community gathers for no specific reason and where people show up for each other.

our impact lies in our LEAD model [Learning, Events, Advocacy, Design]. all projects and initiatives by tpm are led by youth in one of these four categories.

our purpose is to combat the lack of accessible infrastructure by rebuilding community through engaging events, advocacy, education, and community projectsour vision is to establish accessible infrastructure that empowers connection among youth
