There’s a blessing in coming together and seeing all that God is doing in each season.

Our entire TCMI class gathered for a night at the beach as our 3rd quarter interns came home for their mid-internship check-in. A bonfire, fellowship, worship, and time together reminded us that while God may have us serving in different places for a season, we are still one family with one purpose.

We’re thankful for each student and the calling the Lord has placed on their lives.

Serving with purpose. A huge group of our students and staff are heading out together to help students move into their dorms at ASU. But first, a quick stop at In-N-Out along the way!

What may seem like a simple act of service is an opportunity to show the love of Christ through willing hands, humble hearts, and a readiness to serve others. We’re grateful for every opportunity God gives us to step outside of ourselves and be a blessing to those around us.

Thank you to everyone who made our 2026 TCMI Open such an incredible day!

From the golf course to Topgolf, it was a day filled with great competition, meaningful conversations, and a shared commitment to changing lives.

Because of your faithful generosity, God is continuing to change lives. Thank you for being part of His work and helping bring hope, freedom, healing, and lasting restoration to men and women through Teen Challenge. Every life transformed is a testimony of His faithfulness, and we are grateful to have you standing with us in this mission.

We can’t wait to see you at next year’s TCMI Open!

Every step is someone's second chance. 👣

This September, Teen Challenge Ministry Institute is lacing up for the Walk for Recovery, and we're saving a spot for you.

Join us on Sunday, September 13, 2026, at Belmont Shore in Long Beach. Check-in starts at 5 PM, with the walk kicking off at 6 PM.

It's more than a walk. Every mile raises awareness, brings hope and freedom to those still battling addiction, and carries recovery into the heart of our community. Because recovery is possible, and every step helps someone step out of addiction and into hope.

Bring your family. Bring your friends. Come give recovery a voice.

It costs about $25,000 to walk one person through a full year of recovery at Teen Challenge. Housing. Meals. Daily care. An advisor walking step by step beside them, someone who's been through the program themselves.

We have never charged a single person for that year. We never will.

Most people arriving here don't have a savings account set aside for rebuilding their life. They have nothing left but the decision to try again. Your gift covers what they cannot, and if you're able to make it an extra gift this summer, it would mean even more right now.

Make this a Summer of Hope and a Summer of Freedom for someone in our center right now. Give today at givetc.org.

Golf has a way of bringing people together—and this day is about something even bigger.

The 2026 TCMI Open is your chance to enjoy a great day on the course while helping provide hope, restoration, and a future for men and women overcoming addiction.

Whether you’re playing, sponsoring, or simply supporting the mission, we’d love to have you with us.

At some point this summer, a phone will ring in a home somewhere in Southern or Central California. A mother will hear her son's voice, steady for the first time in years. A husband will hear his wife say she's experiencing real freedom, and mean it.

Calls like these happen every week in our centers. They're part of what restoration looks like. Not just a changed life. A family brought back together.

None of it happens without support behind the scenes. Would you consider an extra gift this summer to help make more of these calls possible? Give today at givetc.org.
