Our programs and activities are built upon 100-plus years of best practices in Boys & Girls Clubs across the country. Many of our programs are curriculum-based and developed for us by nationally recognized experts in youth development and education. All of our programs and activities are designed to be purposeful and fun. We use the things our participants like to do to teach them skills they need to be successful today and in the future.
Our programs are focused in five core areas: Education and Career Development; Character and Leadership Development; Sports, Fitness, and Recreation; Health and Life Skills; and the Arts (drama and fine arts).
