The Teen Center will be a safe, welcoming space dedicated solely to teens in Ozark—offering them the only place in town designed specifically for their needs. With no other local facilities catering to this age group, the center will provide a positive environment where teens can gather, connect, and grow. Our programs will foster a sense of belonging and safety, ensuring that teens have a supportive space to learn, create, and thrive.
The new Teen Center’s ARTS department will feature a state-of-the-art music recording studio, podcast studio, digital piano lab, and more!! These cutting-edge resources will give teens the opportunity to explore their creativity, develop new skills, and express themselves through music, media, and the arts.
The Teen Center will prioritize career readiness, equipping teens with the skills and experiences they need to succeed in today’s workforce. We will offer hands-on training in fields like technology, trades, and the arts. From resume building and job interview preparation to internships and certifications, our programs will empower teens to explore career pathways, develop critical skills, and prepare for a bright future in their chosen fields.
At the Teen Center, academics will be a key focus, ensuring that teens receive the support they need to succeed in school and beyond. We will offer tutoring, homework help, and access to educational resources that reinforce classroom learning. By collaborating with local schools, we’ll provide programs designed to strengthen academic skills, encourage good study habits, and help teens achieve their educational goals.
