Organizational Overview

The mission of the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Billerica is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. By reaching children at an early age and providing positive activities and encouragement, our Club provides a compelling alternative to many of the negative influences that effect our youth today.

Our childcare programs promote the development of young people by instilling a sense of competence, usefulness, influence and belonging. When this strategy is fully implemented, self-esteem is enhanced and an environment is created which helps our members achieve their full potential.
