The BREAK Crystal Lake

The Break Teen Center in Crystal Lake is a vibrant hub designed exclusively for teens and young adults, providing a safe, creative, and inclusive space.  At The Break teens can explore  their passions through various workshops, after school programming, art, music, technology and leadership.  Our dedicated team of Staff and Volunteers are committed to fostering personal growth, building friendships, and empowering the next generation.  The Break is a place where our youth are free to be themselves surrounded by a community of caring individuals and access to resources to help them learn and grow.

We accept donations of any size as we understand and appreciate how each donation is meaningful.

Without the monetary support provided by our community of donors and the time and talents of our amazing volunteers, we would not be able to provide services to help enrich the lives of the Teens who put their trust in The BREAK.  Our goal to grow programming and expand services cannot happen without YOUR help.  Your tax deductible donation will allow us to continue to cultivate the full potential of our Teens and Young Adults through connection, mentorship, job shadowing/internships, service opportunities and support.  

Thank you!
