Last year Teen Challenge of Southern California served over 200,000 men, women and children in Southern California through its resident and outreach addiction recovery and prevention programs. The Teen Challenge residential program continues to be one of the largest and most effective substance abuse recovery and prevention programs of its kind. Teen Challenge is a non-profit organization that relies entirely on the generous donations, funding and volunteer efforts of both individuals and organizations throughout our communities in order to offer services at no cost to the individual. We know that community involvement and support is an essential component of recovery and necessary to providing services that address the specific needs of the communities involved. Ours is a missional movement that unashamedly follows Christ, embraces servant leadership, and shares transforming grace. "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17)
