Membership Information                 

Membership is available for any 9th-12th grader that either lives in Brookline or attends school in Brookline (public or private).

6th, 7th & 8th graders may also become members, but we are currently open only one day per week for them to attend.

Our goal is to be a resource to ALL teens in the Brookline community.

Rising 9th graders attend on 9th-12th grade days/hours the summer before the start of their freshman year.

Seniors that have graduated may maintain their membership until August 31st of their first summer post graduation

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN MY MEMBERSHIP?

Participation in all BTC programs is on a drop-in, voluntary basis.

Members have unlimited in-out privileges and are welcome to attend all classes, workshops, events, parties and more. Most of the field trips are at no cost but some have a small additional amount which members need to pay in order to attend.

COST = PAY WHAT YOU CAN

The BTC is a privately funded, non-profit organization with no town or public funding. We are not able to offer our membership for free. We believe that every Brookline youth is entitled to have access to the excellent programs, activities and opportunities that the BTC provides. 

Membership is not free but is based on the Pay What You Can model as we understand that our members come from a wide spectrum of financial positions yet believe all youth should be able to attend.

The suggested amount for annual membership is $200.00. Please understand that $200.00 does not cover our annual costs of one member. If you are able, please consider an increased donation amount. If $200.00 does not fit into your budget, please consider a payment amount that makes sense for you. Middle Schoolers (6th, 7th & 8th grade) – We recognize that there is limited time at the BTC available for this age group and therefore the suggested amount for an annual membership is $100 per year.

Payments can be made annually, bi-annually or monthly. Membership can be cancelled at any time and future payments will not be owed. There are no refunds once a payment has been made.

PAYMENT AMOUNT OPTIONS:

If none of the above payment options fit your budget, please email info@brooklineteencenter.org to discuss the possibility of a free membership.

NOTICE OF NON-DISCRIMINATION

The BTC does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religious creed, gender, national origin, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, physical or mental disability, pregnancy, status as a citizen, veteran or military affiliation in membership, employment or its programs/activities.
