Description

The Bridge Teen Center is an innovative grassroots nonprofit community center that was designed around the interests and needs of the average suburban teen. We are located in Orland Park and we serve teens and families all over the Chicago Southland and NW Indiana area. Our mission is to provide free programs during after-school and unsupervised hours where students can develop mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually in a safe environment. Our programs are designed with purpose, and are offered in five different program buckets:

  1. Everyday Life

  2. Community Connections

  3. Educational Support

  4. Mind/Body

  5. Expressive Arts

The Bridge Teen Center exists to serve students between the ages of 13-18 (7th-12th grades), and also provides monthly programming for help parents navigate through the teenage years.

This is the most amazing place for teens! Their programs are FREE for teens and it is such a wonderful, safe environment for teens to get together and socialize and learn new skills. They have various classes during the week after school and then have special music/entertainment programs on Friday nights which always draw a big crowd. All of the staff there are committed to the program and have a heart to reach out to teens from various walks of life.
