The application process will include an “Application for Admission”, Health Screening form, General Program Rules, and a financial form.  Be sure to read everything carefully and thoroughly. Please complete and return all forms except the Health Screening form. Upon completion of the application you will need to contact us for an interview at which time you will be advised whether or not to begin your medical testing. Please be aware that if your application is not completely filled out it will be returned to you which would cause a delay in your being accepted into Teen Challenge.

No mood altering medication will be allowed for any purpose. Non-psychiatric drugs prescribed by a doctor for physiological reasons (such as epilepsy, blood pressure, diabetes, etc.) will be administered by staff while you are in the program. If you have a severe case of Hepatitis C requiring you to be on interferon or a similar drug, we will not be able to accept you into our program. However, there may be other Teen Challenge Centers who may be able to accept you.

The following tests are listed on the Health Screening form and must be completed: S.T.D., Hepatitis A,B, and C Panel, H.I.V., T.B. Test, Urinalysis, (pregnancy and Pap Smear for female applicants) and Dental exam. We must have the results of the above tests and a copy of each lab report, with the doctor's signature on the back of the Health Screening form. A dentist's report must also be sent indicating that the dentist does not foresee any work that will need to be done in the next year. A T.B. Test is required and must be done no more than 30 days before entering Teen Challenge.

Once we receive the medical results and you are accepted, we will put your name on our waiting list.

Keep in touch with us throughout the process. If you have further questions please do not hesitate to call.

In His Service,

Quinby Collier
