teen challenge TEEN CHALLENGE - Barbados
Teen Challenge Director, Stephen Gilkes, said the drug rehab centre was very thankful for the assistance given by FirstCaribbean International Bank who made an investment in September this year that is sure to pay future dividends. FirstCaribbean International Bank contributed Bds$10, 000 and a whole days work to one of Barbados main drug rehab facilities, Teen Challenge Barbados. Teen Challenge is the oldest, largest and most successful program of its kind in the world. In 1958, David Wilkerson author of "The Cross and the Switchblade," became burdened with the desire to help youth, adults, and families suffering from life controlling problems primarily in the area of Drug and alcohol abuse. To counter the feelings of loneliness and alienation, which he found in the street gangs of New York City, he started to take a message of love and freedom into their communities. This was the birth of Teen challenge. Teen Challenge has grown to more than 90 countries worldwide and approximately 500 centers.
