About the provider
The organization says it began in 1939. Its mission is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible people. The Clubs also provide a proactive alternative to school failure and the cycle of poverty, and the organization says its after-school programs and nutritional dinners enable parents to work.
The source says the Clubs provide a safe and supervised environment and remove barriers to afterschool and summer care for families.
