Our purpose is to provide adults and families with an effective and comprehensive faith-based solution to life-controlling drug and alcohol problems in order for them to become productive members of society. By applying biblical principles, teen challenge endeavors to help people become mentally sound, emotionally balanced, socially adjusted, physically well and spiritually alive.

Teen challenge is the faith-based solution for the drug epidemic. The scope of teen challenge has grown over the years, and now serves adults as well as teenagers. There are almost 200 teen challenge campuses in the united states, and over 1,000 centers world wide in over 80 countries, which provide christian recovery services to individuals of every age and social background. Typically, these services are long-term residential recovery centers which provide a life-encompassing environment through which the participant is able to change their lifestyle and develop a plan for a future free from addiction. Another core tenet of teen challenge is drug abuse prevention, which educates young adults on the dangers and reality of drug abuse in our society. Teen challenge admitted 344 men and women in 2016 and graduated 83 from its 12 month residential program.
