We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future
~ Franklin D. Roosevelt
The Bradford Teen Lounge is open Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Fridays from 2:30-6:00 at the Bradford Academy in room 26 . It is a safe, positive place for 7th through 12th graders to go after school. We have ping pong, foosball, games, homework space, etc...
Through the FundingFactory Recycling Program we are recycling empty printer cartridges, cell phones, small electronics, and laptops and earning funding for the Bradford Teen Association. The program is FREE and easy, but it won’t work without your support. By recycling items you would normally throw away, we are earning points that turn into cash. Not only will we receive funds, we will be doing our part to help save the environment! Let’s make this recycling program a huge success by working together to collect as many empty cartridges, cell phones, small electronics, and laptops as we can. Drop off printer cartridges and small electronics in the lobby of the Bradford Academy! If you have any questions about this great opportunity, please feel free to e-mail us at bradfordteenassociation@ gmail.com
Thank you in advance for your support!

BTA Vision Statement
Five years from now the Bradford Teen Association hopes to be a program that operates year round seven days a week and to be financially self-sufficient. We want to provide programs that provide leadership opportunities that will empower and energize the teens of Bradford and surrounding communities. It is our hope that in five years the Bradford Teen Association will not only inspire the teens of Bradford but also the community.
Mission Statement
The objective of the Bradford Teen Association is to promote healthy age- appropriate development for teens in Bradford and surrounding communities. This is achieved by providing an environment designed to develop positive social skills and social competence, foster moral development, and enhance self-esteem. All of which are related to reduced risk-taking behavior, academic success, and healthy interpersonal relationships. BTA supports teens in development tasks by providing them a place within the community, other than home and school, where they can be involved in healthy socialization and gain experience in participating as a citizen in a productive manner. It is a safe zone where teens can build social relationships and have fun in a safe supervised environment.
