HISTORY
Bay Area Substance Education Services, Inc.
(BASES) was founded in 1993 as a private,
non-profit, licensed substance abuse provider. In
1997, BASES took over the Charlevoix Teen Center
to provide stability to that struggling
organization. The Teen Center is dedicated to
providing teens after school social and
recreational opportunities as a preventative
method for avoiding substance abuse and violence
problems.
