Program Ideals: Boys & Girls Clubs provide diverse activities that meet the interests of all youth. Core Programs engage young people in activities with adults, peers and family members that enable them to develop self-esteem and to reach their full potential. Based on physical, emotional, cultural and social needs and interests of girls and boys, and recognizing developmental principals, Clubs offer program activities in five areas: *The Arts *Character and Leadership Development *Education and Career Development *Health and Life Skills *Sports, Fitness and Recreation
