In 2018, the Brighton Avenue Community Center was reopened as the Perth Amboy Teen Center. Its mission is to cultivate and empower Perth Amboy’s future leaders by providing a safe place where they can have access to resources, tools for success, life skills training and participate in educational and leisure activities. The Vision of the center is to provide Perth Amboy youth opportunities to thrive locally, building strong roots to grow and prosper globally. Perth Amboy teens,13 years and older have been able to participate in programs such as job/college readiness workshops, gardening, film and discussions, drug prevention programs, recreational clubs, and arts & culture workshops. The teen center has developed a strong relationship with the State Theatre of NJ and has become a participant of the Access Initiative Program at the Bergen PAC Theatre. This partnership has provided many of our teens the opportunity to watch a variety of performance arts shows at no cost and exposed them to diverse art forms.

Municipal Alliance

The Municipal Alliance is a network of community-based prevention programs found throughout New Jersey’s 21 counties. It was created for grassroots volunteers to have the opportunity to develop programs and implement activities to address specific substance abuse problems in their communities.

Throughout the state, Drug Enforcement Demand Reduction (DEDR) funds are collected by fines imposed for drug-related offenses. The Governor’s Council on Alcoholism & Drug Abuse (GCADA) utilizes these funds to issue grants to each county in New Jersey.

The Perth Amboy Municipal Alliance seeks to create a safe and healthy community that is free from substance abuse. It was established in 1990 with the purpose of developing a network of local leadership that will help identify needs and services, coordinate projects and develop prevention programs to address alcohol, tobacco and substance abuse.

A resource, center of the Municipal Alliance Program, is the Perth Amboy Municipal Alliance Committee (PAMAC). PAMAC is composed by a diverse group of volunteers who work collaboratively to plan and implement drug, alcohol and tobacco prevention programs in our community.
