How We Work

Safer Childhoods


Ensuring child safety is fundamental to our mission. We work every day to create a safe, fun environment so kids can have every opportunity to be successful in life. We have zero tolerance for inappropriate behavior of any kind, including child sexual abuse or misconduct, and we have policies and procedures to support this stance.

Caring Mentors


Our youth are always led by positive role models and leaders, who reinforce the message that our team believes in them and their capacity to do astounding things. By ensuring that every child feels valued as an individual, we can build stronger mentorships that continue to serve young people long after they outgrow us.

Personal dedication


Much more than just a safe place to land, the Alameda Boys & Girls provides our youth with experiences that encourage and empower their sense of self-worth. We believe that imagination can only bloom for our youth when they are cared for mentally, physically, academically, and emotionally - and so we work to provide that care, year-round.
