History

In 1990, the Boys Club added "Girls" to its title and an aggressive effort to serve both girls and boys was initiated.  Today, Clubs are open to all boys and girls between the ages of 6 and 18, regardless of race, religion or national origin.  Our 13 Clubs serve a membership base of more than 5,000 youth annually, providing programs based on physical, emotional, cultural and social needs, and the interests of boys and girls.  Clubs offer diverse program activities in five areas: Character & Leadership Development; Education & Career Development; Health & Life Skills; The Arts; and Sports, Fitness & Recreation.  These services are offered through a network of center based, professionally staffed, small group and one-on-one teachable moments and classes.  Programs implemented enhance character and self-esteem, are educational and fun and ultimately contribute to youth realizing their maximum potential.
