What We Do

After School Programs

Boys & Girls Club works to save and change the lives of children and teens, especially those who need us most, by providing safe, positive and engaging environment with programs that prepare and inspire them to achieve Great Futures. Through 8 program sites, our trained and professional staff serves more than 500 youth daily. Our programs focus on helping kids succeed in school, live healthier, and become leaders.

Due to school regulations, only students who attend the Club's targeted schools are eligible to join Boys & Girls Club.

PROGRAMMING

Our Club provides these services and programs to help boys and girls make positive life choices. From education and career programs to health and life skills, our staff and volunteers help inspire youth by providing an opportunity to belong, succeed and serve their community.

  • Career & education programs focus on three approaches: academic enrichment and school engagement; targeted dropout prevention; and intensive intervention and case management. Our aim is to ensure that all Club members graduate from high school on time, ready for a post-secondary education and a 21st-century career.

  • Character & leadership programs are built around helping youth become responsible caring citizens and acquire skills for participating in the democratic process is the main thrust of these programs. They also develop leadership skills and provide opportunities for planning, decision-making, and contributing to the Club and community and celebrating our national heritage.

  • Health & life skills programs develop young people’s capacity to engage in positive behaviors that nurture their own well-being, set personal goals and live successfully as self-sufficient adults.
