Mission

What it reported doing in 2024

Teen challenge works on a christ centered model of drug & alcohol recovery. This means that we are concerned with the body, mind, and spirit of those who come to our addiction recovery center. We endeavor to help people become mentally sound, emotionally balanced, socially adjusted, physically well, and spiritually alive.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 83% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
