The facility is the largest Boys & Girls Club of America site built on a public housing site, and serves as host to seven additional building partner programs.
Our mission is to inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to achieve their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens. SRV is a dedicated youth service agency for young people ages 5 to 18. Programs include after school drop-in activities and summer programming, outreach programs for teens, including some late night activities and Keystone Club. SRV gives kids a place to call their own, where they can have fun, get a hot meal, be creative, be a part of a team, get help with homework or just hang out with friends. We offer a safe, fun, inclusive, and inspiring place that kids and their families count on every day.
The Club also offers volunteer, community service, and employment opportunities for youth and teens.
