LEADERSHIP
CENTER
TEEN
BOYS PROGRAM
Who we are:
Housed in two specially converted adjoining brownstones in the heart of New York City's East Village, the Leadership Center is uniquely designed to provide a warm, family-like atmosphere. The high staff to client ratio at the Center affords Odyssey House the opportunity to provide teen boys with the individualized support, treatment, and attention they need to grow into healthy young men.
Teens in treatment are encouraged to take full advantage of the wide range of innovative youth facilities, theaters, museums and other cultural resources readily available to them within a few blocks of the center. Exposing troubled adolescents to cultural institutions and places of higher learning greatly enhances their educational and social experiences, and enriches their treatment experience.
