Founded in 1876, The Boys’ Club of New York (BCNY) is a youth development organization with the mission to empower boys and young men, ages 7 to 21, by providing effective programs and a supportive community. BCNY provides evidence-based programs to address the evolving social, emotional, health, creative, educational, and vocational needs of our members in meaningful, lasting ways. BCNY develops programs to cultivate positive qualities in members and strives to continually deepen and broaden our impact.

We are a COVID-19 proactive organization that follows applicable health and safety regulations to help protect our members and staff. Reporting to the Clubhouse Director, the Social Worker will provide a range of prevention and intervention services, including trainings, workshops, and consultations for members and parents. He/she will enable staff to respond appropriately to behavioral, social, and emotional issues by providing training, coaching, and ongoing support. The Social Worker will also provide linkages and referrals to external resources when necessary. 

BCNY is a COVID-19 proactive organization that follows applicable health and safety regulations to help protect our members and staff. To that end, we require that all BCNY full-time employees be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. BCNY requires all full-time staff to receive a booster shot that protects against COVID-19 once they become eligible. New full-time employees will be asked to submit proof of full vaccination prior to their start date. BCNY treats proof of vaccination confidentially and consistent with applicable law, and will not use the information for any purpose other than to ensure compliance with BCNY’s mandatory vaccination policy. Part time employees are strongly encouraged but not required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
