The Mission

Teen Esteem was founded in 1994 with a desire to empower students, parents, educators, and the community to connect and collaborate concerning the challenges and risks that young people face. We are a non-profit organization funded by private charitable donations and nominal program fees. Relief, validation, understanding, and hope are the positive outcomes reported by thousands of young people and adults reached each year by Teen Esteem.
