Welcome to Teen Challenge Chicago

The Chicago Center is a four month induction center for men 18 and older. We offer an environment of support and spiritual formation. The program requires discipline, responsible decision-making and accountability. Students are taught how to translate creed into conduct, faith into practice, and doctrine into daily living.

After completion of the four months, the individual will graduate the first phase and will travel to a second phase training center, out of state. Throughout the one year experience they are also equipped with functional tools-including GED when needed, job skills and vocational training-to assist in re-entering society as productive and healthy individuals.
