A Solid Rock.

A Foundation for Life.

ALICE COOPER’S SOLID ROCK teen centers | NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION

Like all great ideas, Solid Rock began on a simple premise. That inside every teen, there is a purpose. It all begins with hope.

A faith-based organization, Solid Rock’s primary mission is to make an everlasting difference in the lives of teens by helping them meet the spiritual, economical, physical, and social needs of teens in the community by offering a safe, engaging environment during non-school hours.

Maintaining “a teen’s worst enemy is too much time on their hands,” Solid Rock provides the music, arts, vocational programs and fellowship that challenge teens to discover their passion through music, dance, art, video and sound production, self-expression, and creativity.

The Impact of Solid Rock

Everyone struggles, perhaps teens even more so. Listen to the teens’ own words about how The Rock has impacted their lives and futures for the better.

OUR
MISSION

“Solid Rock’s primary goal is to help meet spiritual, economic, physical, and social needs of teenagers in our community.”

– Alice Cooper

FOR ALMOST HALF A CENTURY, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame singer, songwriter and musician Alice Cooper has been the pioneer of a groundbreaking theatrical and heavy metal rock performance designed to shock parents and thrill kids.

The Rolling Stone Album Guide calls him the world’s most “beloved heavy metal entertainer.” Alice helped to shape the sound and look of heavy metal, introducing horror imagery to rock and roll. His imaginative stagecraft and masterful showmanship have transformed the genre for generations to come.

In 2011, the original Alice Cooper band was inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, followed by the release of “Welcome 2 My Nightmare,” the highly anticipated album 35 years after the original concept album that established Alice Cooper as a cultural phenomenon.

Away from music, Alice is decidedly different from his stage persona. He is a strong Christian family man, as well as a film actor, celebrity golfer, and a popular DJ with his classic radio show, Alice’s Attic (formerly Nights with Alice Cooper).
