About us

Europe Teen Challenge is a fellowship of Teen Challenge programs operating in 37 countries throughout Europe. Teen Challenge is a faith-based work whose purpose is to help the marginalized of society and people with life-controlling problems. The ultimate goal is to see these people integrated into society living full, productive lives.

Since its beginning in 1969, Europe Teen Challenge has grown to include programs in 37 countries with more than 2,000 full-time workers and volunteers.

Most Teen Challenge programs in Europe send workers to the streets of their cities seeking contact with those who are troubled with alcohol, drug abuse and other life-controlling problems. We believe there is hope for those who have no hope of breaking free from such problems. This hope can be found in a personal relationship with God.
