Dress up as your favorite pop culture icon for the chance to win the costume contest or get a group together for pop culture trivia! Spots are limited, register now!

Volunteers are an important part of our Safety Town Program. Volunteers help teach pre-Kindergartners important safety concepts at Safety Town! Teen volunteers assist the Safety Town Staff in teaching safety concepts such as dog safety, bike safety, fire safety (and more) through songs, engaging activities, and field trips. Each teen volunteer will be paired up and help supervise five to eight children.

Volunteer spots are limited! If you have a teen in 7th through 12th grade who is interested in volunteering, please fill out the volunteer form!

Teen Programs Offered at the Johnson Teen Center

Come Join Our Life Changing Programs!

The Johnson Teen Center (JTC) offers everything from fun social interactions with friends, to homework help, to leadership training, and even job readiness!

SMART Girls (7th – 8th grade)

SMART Girls is a small-group health, prevention/education and self-esteem enhancement program for those youth that identify as female. Through group discussions, field trips, and mentoring opportunities with adult women, SMART Girls explore their own attitudes and values as they build skills to live a healthy life filled with positive relationships with peers and adults.

Torch Club (7th – 8th grade)

Torch Club is the middle school leadership and community service club. Torch Club is a powerful vehicle through which Club staff and middle school teens can develop strong bonds and lasting friendships through group projects and Club based service projects. Each year, Torch Club members from all over the country take part in a community service experience through the National Torch Club Project.

Keystone (9th – 12th grade)

Keystone affords high school teens an opportunity to gain valuable leadership and service experience that helps build strong soft skills that will support future success. Teens conduct research looking at relevant and important topics that impact other teens in the community. They then design and implement a high impact community service project to enhance their local community. For teens looking to enhance their leadership skills, this is the right program for them!

Training Teens for Tomorrow (T3) Workforce Readiness (10th-12th grade)

Come be part of the Johnson Teen Center’s premier job training program! T3 is designed for 10th–12th graders who want to build real-world skills and gain hands-on experience that employers value.

Through three progressive steps, teens learn workplace basics, practice professional skills, and apply what they’ve learned in real job settings—setting them up for success now and in the future.

• Customer Service
• Sales
• Inventory management and display

Club Retail helps build and develop the foundational soft skills that employers want including reliability, teamwork, dependability, and communication. These skills combined with exposure into potential career pathways after graduation help build understanding and connections to school and ensure on-time progression into high school.
