"Offering the faith based cure for the drug epidemic"
We are located in a secluded 175 acre wooded campus in beautiful Branson West, Missouri ( 32
miles from Springfield, Missouri). Our setting includes trails for hiking, a prayer gazebo, acres of
lawns and dense wooded areas, a sun deck, and plentiful open space to focus on PHYSICAL
HEALTH AND WHOLENESS in a Christ based program.

Teen Challenge of the Ozarks is a 12- 15 month residential DISCIPLESHIP PROGRAM that serves
female students from age 18 and up. We serve ladies who are struggling with
LIFE-CONTROLLING PROBLEMS. We believe that people are not broken things that need to be
fixed, but rather that they are disconnected people who need to be reconnected to God and an
authentic Christian community! Our program is designed to teach and model a Christ-like lifestyle
and attitude.

Our students follow a very structured daily schedule that includes exercise time, group and
personal devotions, biblically based personal and group studies, household chores, and study time.
The students attend church services Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings, and have
Chapel services at the center Thursday evenings.

Ministry is another activity our students participate in while in the program. The students go to
different churches and tell how they came to Teen Challenge, and what God has done in their
lives. People who have been too scared to reach out for help have been given hope just by
hearing our students' stories, and realizing they are not alone in their struggles.
