2007-2008 Program Evaluation

The Ann Arbor Teen Center was founded by teens to provide a venue for needed social, cultural, educational, recreational, and creative opportunities for Ann Arbor area high school teens. The mission statement of the center was written by youth and revised by the Teen Advisory Council and the Board of Directors in 2007. It continues to be the voice and heart which drives the center’s creative programs.

Supported by 6 full time, 15 part time staff, and 72 volunteers, Neutral Zone features an after school drop-in program, 21 programs in the five program areas- Music, Literary Arts, Visual Arts, Education, and Leadership, and hosts weekend concerts and special events. This evaluation is a documentation of the programmatic year from September 2007 through June 2008.

This evaluation focuses on the following goals:

  • To provide a historical documentation of the teens and the programs at Neutral Zone.
  • To provide analysis and recommendations to guide the future programmatic decisions.
  • To provide useful information for grant reporting and general dissemination.
