Teen Combos (or just Combos) were a center for the re-training of disillusioned teenagers, created in the latter half of the 1980s, leading to the creation of "Victor Camps" or Victor Programs. They had generally all been closed by the early 1990s.
Some of these Combos had anywhere from 100 to 200 teenagers and about half as many FGAs.
Many of the leaders of these Combos have been accused of various forms of abuse. Many of them remain current members of The Family International at large.
