About Us

Like a tree that provides a home for the birds of the air, The Treetop Clubhouse is an organization that empowers individuals to be the best version of themselves, no matter what stage of life they are in.

Our Story

The Treetop Clubhouse was launched at the beginning of 2021. The vision for the nonprofit is to provide resources, support, and curriculum to at-risk teens, students, guardians, educators, and anyone interested in personal development and growth. Based in Eastern esoteric methods of teaching, the content provided throughout the site and curriculum is developed in conjunction with specialists in health, child development, education, and more.
