About Our Ministry!
Teen Challenge of South Carolina is a non-residential crisis referral center. For years, we have assisted familes in crisis by interviewing and placing students into Teen Challenge in other states. This process has been beneficial to hundreds in our area. For some time, we have desired to provide more services than space and resources permited. Now, BIG changes are in the plans. God has provided many miracles for us to expand both in space and with financial resources! You can be part of the miracle taking place between Conway and Georgetown on Highway 701 approximately half way between both of those cities in the community of Yauannah, SC.
A full Induction Center is now under construction. A beautiful log cabin facility situated on 45 acres of wooded property will be completed soon. The expectation is that we will be able to begin the residential operation within a year. Photos are available under "Photos" showing the progress.
Our office is open for interviews and distribution of literature about Teen Challenge. We interview potential students and assist them with paperwork to complete medical testing for entrance into the program. We also provide guidance in locating a residential facility suitable to their needs.
Many people call asking about the process of enrolling into the program. The steps are simple. First, make the call for information or help and someone will be glad to speak with you. Second, make an appointment to come to the office for an indepth interview showing "who we are, what we do and how we do it". This usually takes an hour. If what we have to offer is what you are looking for, we will be glad to assist you or your loved on with paperwork to enroll as soon as a bed can be secured at one of the regional residential facilities.
We can be reached by phone at 843-520-4888 or by e-mail at teenchallengesc@verizon.net
