The Lincoln Center for Family and Youth (TLC), headquartered in Audubon, Pennsylvania, is a nonprofit alternative education and social services agency that provides supportive interventions for at-risk students and families. TLC was established in 1970 as a community-based services division of the Eagleville Hospital in Eagleville, Pennsylvania. In 1976, TLC opened its first alternative school to serve at-risk public school students. TLC incorporated in 1983 and became an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit educational organization. Today, TLC provides an experiential problem-based learning alternative education program for students in grades 7-12, in-school individual counseling services for public school students, and at-home counseling services (e.g., mental health, drug and alcohol prevention, victim abuse) for students and their families.[2]
