At BGCAZ, teens are getting the chance to shape their own after-school experience through Teen Takeover. Designed to give young people a place to connect, relax, and have fun after school, the program also emphasizes positive interaction and learning opportunities. What makes Teen Takeover unique is that teens themselves provide input and feedback on how the space looks and feels—making the center truly their own. It’s more than just a hangout; it’s a welcoming environment where friendships, creativity, and growth come together.
