About

Alive Center for Teens is a nonprofit organization that offers free drop-in hours after school and over the summer as well as a myriad of programs, classes and events, designed to build confident and resilient teens. We have centers in Naperville, Aurora and Hanover Park. Our mission is to be a Teen-Led, Teen-Driven (TLTD) center focused on empowering the youth of today to become the impassioned, resilient leaders of tomorrow. On any given day at Alive one will find teen-led tutoring, mentoring and clubs as well as life skill classes such as unstructured art, media nutrition and healthy cooking, stress management, STEM classes and clubs, open music venues, creative writing and just plain fun! We are a place to belong and learn important life skills. We are about new experiences and expanding minds!
