South End Teen Center

Located at 5 Libby Court on the Waterville KVCAP Campus, the South End Teen Center is a satellite location of the Waterville Area Boys and Girls Club, proudly partnered with the Alfond Youth Center. We are dedicated to empowering youth in the Greater Waterville area through a safe and nurturing environment.
