Teen Center (School-Based Youth Services Program)
The New Jersey Community Development Corporation (NJCDC), a private, non-profit community development agency based in Paterson, NJ, is proud to team with CHS to offer the School-Based Youth Services Program (SBYSP). Funded by The Department of Children and Families (DCF), the SBYSP seeks primarily to help students stay emotionally and physically healthy so that they can graduate with skills necessary for continued education or employment. The Program is available to all CHS students and their families. Participation is free of charge, is voluntary and only requires a Parental/Guardian Consent Form for students less than 18 years of age. Students can enroll themselves or be referred by any CHS staff member. The SBYSP (The Teen Center) is located in the South Wing, Room G-21 A (near the upper gyms). It is designed to be a comfortable and fun environment for teens. The SBYSP serves as a focal point to access existing programs.

We offer daily zoom workshops and groups, counseling and tutoring. We all could use a little extra support and connection these days. The Teen Center is here to help!
