🎉 BIG NEWS, EAGLE RIVER! 🎉

We are beyond excited to officially announce that Believe Teen Center has a home! 🖤

We have officially acquired the former Boys & Girls Club building in Eagle River, Alaska, and we cannot wait to breathe new life into this space and make it a place where local teens can belong, be supported, discover their purpose, and BELIEVE in who they are becoming.

🖤 What is Believe Teen Center?

Believe Teen Center is a student-led space created specifically for teens. Our goal is to provide a safe and welcoming place where teenagers can build friendships, develop life skills, find mentorship, receive support, have fun, and discover opportunities to grow.

And the best part? Our programming will be FREE for teens.

This building is more than four walls. It represents a place where teens can walk through the doors and know:

You matter.
You belong.
You are seen.
You are believed in.

We want to partner with our community!

We are looking forward to partnering with local businesses, organizations, churches, community leaders, and individuals who want to invest in the next generation.

Together, we can create free programs, activities, mentorship opportunities, life-skills classes, leadership experiences, events, and so much more for the teens in our community.

This is just the beginning. 🖤

The building is ours.
The vision is growing.
And now… we’re getting ready to open the doors.

Coming soon… Believe Teen Center.

If you are a local business or organization that wants to partner with us, we would LOVE to connect!
