About the Provider

Description: The Boys & Girls Club is more than a place, it is a "movement" to inspire and enable all young people, especially those from disadvantaged circumstances, to realize their full potential as productive, caring and responsible citizens. By reaching children at an early age and providing positive activities and encouragement, Boys & Girls Clubs provide a compelling alternative to youth crime, gang membership, drugs, and other negative influences that effect our youth today. It is a safe place that kids can call their "own."
