Here are the top stories today in Boulder:

1. Boulder's TGTHR, which was formerly known as Attention Homes, aims to end the cycle of youth homelessness with an emergency shelter, a 40-unit apartment building, and a transitional housing program. The nonprofit organization was created in 1966 to help teenagers and young adults experiencing homelessness. At the time, there weren't many places for young people to go when they left home so they were sent to adult centers. (Colorado Daily)
2. Boulder County crews are fighting a small wildfire in the western foothills. Officials said the fire is in the area of Twin Sisters Peak off of Magnolia Road and was about a quarter-acre in size and moving slowly. (The Daily Camera)
3. On Monday, Boulder County reported seven new COVID-19 deaths from over the weekend, bringing the county's total to 306 to date. (Colorado Daily)
4. As food costs skyrocket across the United States, consider these ways to save money on 2021's Thanksgiving dinner in Boulder. (Boulder Patch)
5. The Boulder Valley School District is encouraging all eligible individuals to get vaccinated and voluntarily share that information with their school or department COVID-19 coordinators. However, vaccination is currently not required. (Press Release Desk)
