Statistics: 

This 12-month character development program offers a daily regiment of structured, disciplined living. The results have been absolutely incredible. A study by the National Institute for Drug Abuse found that a Teen Challenge center had an 86% cure rate for heroin addiction. In 1992, Dr. Roger Thompson of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga conducted a study focusing on 13 years of Teen Challenge graduates. Dr. Thompson found that 75% of the graduates were still drug free, 67% were abstaining from both drugs and alcohol, and 88% needed no further treatment for drug or alcohol abuse. Using the same approach, Teen Challenge of Illinois claims a cure rate of over 70%.

We look forward to partnering along with you in seeing persons with life-controlling problems become whole persons; physically well, mentally alert, emotionally balanced, socially adjusted and spiritually alive.
