Core Programs
Core Programs
Based on the interests and needs of the youth we serve, our committed staff and volunteers plan daily activities under five core areas of programming:
Health & Life Skills
Programs in Health and Life Skills help develop young people’s capacity to engage in positive behaviors that nurture their own well-being, set personal goals and live successfully as self-sufficient adults.
Character & Leadership Development
These programs help young become responsible, caring citizens. They also develop leadership skills and provide opportunities for planning, decision-making, contributing to Club and community and celebrating our national heritage.
The Arts
Programs in this core area enable youth to develop their creativity and cultural awareness through knowledge and appreciation of the visual arts, crafts, performing arts and creative writing.
Sports, Recreation & Fitness
These Club programs help develop fitness, a positive use of leisure time, reduction of stress, appreciation for the environment and social and interpersonal skills.
Education & Career
These programs help youth create aspirations for the future, providing opportunities for career exploration and educational enhancement.
