BACKGROUND
The Perry Park Teen Center, located at 2301 Grant Avenue, officially opened to the public in September, 2025. The highly anticipated facility serves as the city’s main hub for teens, providing a safe and engaging space for interaction, fun, and support. Prior to its opening, the facility underwent a full renovation, including interior and exterior paint; remodel of the interior including updated floors and kitchen, among other things; and a fresh approach to creating a warm and inviting space for the community’s teens. Staff worked closely with the Public Works team to complete all improvements, and they delivered a space that the city is proud of.
Staff maintain a dedicated facility webpage on the City website that outlines upcoming schedules, events, and activities. This information can be found at the following link:

Included as an attachment is the Teen Center’s December calendar to demonstrate the ongoing events and activities that the facility offers. Additionally, staff maintain an Instagram page, redondoteens, for additional outreach and communication.
Considering the fact that staff will continue to rely on the Youth Commission (Commission) for valuable input regarding the use of the teen center, and that many Youth Commissioners have not had the opportunity to visit the facility, staff will share a presentation including images of the space, calendar of events, and upcoming facility enhancements. Staff recommends the Commission receive and file the presentation and provide any input on additional improvements or program enhancements for the facility.
