Our Mission

Youth Programs (YP) provides opportunities for youths to develop their physical, social, emotional, and cognitive abilities and to experience achievement, leadership, enjoyment, friendship, and recognition. Youth programs provide a wide variety of services and activities for children 5 years to 18 years of age including before and after school (SAP) programs, full day camps during summer vacation and school holidays, youth sports, youth transition, and support services. The School Age programs complement, rather than duplicate, the school day.

Boys & Girls Club of America

Youth Programs (YP) is affiliated with Boys & Girls Club of America, a national organization with a mission to inspire and enable all young people to realize their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens. One of the most important principles of the Boys & Girls Club “movement” is the assurance of fun and interesting experiences. Along with personal relationships with YP staff, the experiences and opportunities for youth establish principles that, while each is important, collectively they have a deep impact on the lives of young people. As a quality program we provide:

- A safe, fun place to learn, grow, and form positive relationships with peers

- Ongoing relationships with trained, caring, adult professionals

- Life-enhancing programs and experiences that help young people see life’s possibilities

- Hope and opportunity that inspires young people to reach their greatest potential
