Our Identity

Since 1958, Brooklyn Teen Challenge has impacted the streets of Brooklyn and the surrounding boroughs. We are part of the largest faith-based network of programs which now has over 35,000 beds available in over 1,400 centers around the world.

Founded in 1958, we have been serving this community in Brooklyn for over 61 years. From our founder to our newest Intern, we are dedicated to the mission of the Gospel. Clink the link to learn more about our leadership.

Addiction is an outward manifestation of inward issues. In a new and vibrant relationship with Jesus Christ and developing character qualities, lives are transformed, families restored, and addictions lose their power. 

We focus on Biblical Principles and depend on decades of experience to walk people to freedom. We are a little like a family, a little like a school, and a little like a boot camp. What is most important is that we are in it together.
