Mission: To enable all young people, especially those that need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring and responsible citizens.
Boys & Girls Clubs reach thousands of at-risk youth residing in our nation’s most distressed communities. Clubs deliver a proven youth development strategy, access to Club services several days a week, a safe and clean environment, life-changing programs, and the opportunity to receive mentoring experiences and relationships with diverse, trained, and caring staff and volunteers in a supervised and structured environment. Many of our Clubs serve at-risk youth, residing in distressed areas where a large proportion of the community’s children are underserved. Boys & Girls Clubs of the Emerald Coast realizes that there is a need in every community to bridge gaps for underserved and disadvantaged youth. There is a relative and compelling need in the communities we serve for positive youth development through intent-based and outcome-driven programming. Such programming is centered on three priority outcome areas: Academic Success, Good Character, and Citizenship along with Healthy Lifestyles.
