Linkage Disclaimer

Links to TeenChallengeUSA.com may be found on other web sites that are not operated by the Teen Challenge International USA, Inc or its affiliates. Teen Challenge International USA, Inc is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of these third party web sites.

Help us link to your Teen Challenge center

Teen Challenge centers are welcome to take advantage of our locations database whereby they can edit their center information and contact names/numbers (for Teen Challenge use only). The standard listing data is taken from our official center name and address records. The enhanced listing (contacts and administration office controls), however, is added on a voluntary basis by individual centers. Log in to your account page for more information.

TeenChallengeUSA.com provides the only searchable, browseable and comprehensive Teen Challenge center directory available of all Teen Challenge centers on the Internet. It is maintained both at the Teen Challenge National Office and by the individual centers themselves. Visitors can search the directory by name/location, as well as by proximity.

Linking your web site to our pages

We encourage you to link to our pages. For example, many Teen Challenge centers' web sites link to the Teen Challenge National Directory. However, we ask that you abide by the following guidelines when doing so:

You may not infer or imply that Teen Challenge International USA, Inc sponsors or in any way approves of your site or any other site.

You may not frame, display, or alter any material from our web sites, or our web pages directly, in any way that obscures our identification, banners or site navigation. Framing does not allow users to bookmark the framed page. Also, some sites use frames to present content belonging to another site as if it was their own. We feel this is confusing to users and jeopardizes the integrity of our content. The presentation of the material linked to must make it readily apparent that the content is the property of Teen Challenge International USA, Inc or its affiliates.

You may not duplicate content (including graphics and/or photos) from this web site without express written permission of Teen Challenge International USA, Inc.

How to link to our directory without "losing" your web site visitors

You can send your web site visitors to our directory without them losing contact with you by using a combination of an "Alert" and a NEW BROWSER WINDOW. Your link launches an alert window that advises the user you are sending them to another site and instructs them to close the new window to return to your site. Your site stays open in its original browser window. The code for such a link would appear as follows.

Of course, you could substitute the HREF and alert message to meet your needs.
