Welcome to the Great Lakes Adult & Teen Challenge
Men’s Center of Hope

Since its beginning in 1983, the Adult & Teen Challenge of Wisconsin has been dedicated to helping men reclaim their lives from addiction. Initially located on 27th Street, we expanded to our current facility at 44th and North Avenue, where we have created a welcoming space for up to 30 residents.
In 1990, we recognized the growing need for additional support and were blessed with a two-acre campus. With the generous support of our community, we expanded our facilities in 2009, adding a chapel and dormitory space, enhancing our capacity to serve men in need of recovery.
Today, the Men’s Center of Hope is celebrated as one of the premier Teen Challenge rehabilitation centers in the country. Our campus features the Don Wilkerson Memorial Chapel, comfortable dormitories, administrative offices, and dedicated staff housing, all designed to foster a sense of community and healing.
