About Us
A Proud History of Youngstown's Premier Youth Development Organization Since 1969
We involve young boys and girls in activities and programs that build their self-esteem and self-worth, and give them the skills that will help them succeed once they leave the Club. We teach the values of responsibility and respect. We empower children to make wise and educated life choices. We give every youth the chance they deserve to have a great future by providing the tools and support they need to achieve their dreams.
Our Mission
At the Boys & Girls Club of Youngstown, we inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens.
