How you help	Our volunteers act as tutors, an open ear, or work behind the scenes to keep our safe and welcoming space running. EDGE offers teens a sense of connection and purpose. It’s more than a place to hang out, stay safe, study and participate in life changing programs – it’s a place where they can interact with caring adults who strive to help teens develop character traits that will enable them to make a positive impact in their world.

About us	EDGE Teen Center is a place where any high school student can help bring the programming & events they want to life. They can also work at the front desk or cafe’. Instead of being alone at home, teens have opportunities to connect with new friends and develop meaningful relationships with adults who care about them.
