Teen Center

For Our Teen Members

Teen Centers at the West Suburban YMCA offers a safe space for teens to connect.

The West Suburban YMCA is committed to supporting teens and is proud to offer safe and welcoming Teen Centers at both the Wells Ave Y and the Church St Y.

Open 7 days a week, the Teen Center at Wells Ave provides a space for middle and high school students to relax, connect, and have fun. Many thanks to Needham Bank for generously sponsoring the Wells Ave Teen Center. Meanwhile, the Teen Center at the Church St Y, located in the basement-level Recreation Room, offers weeknight fun, student Wi-Fi, and special events tailored for youth members ages 13-17. Both Teen Centers are free for members, and their guests are always welcome, making them the perfect spots to hang out after school or on the weekends. See activities at both Teen Centers, listed below.
