Boys & Girls Clubs of St. Lucie County

Boys & Girls Clubs of St. Lucie County is dedicated to providing youth with a world-class Boys & Girls Clubs experience, assuring that success is within reach for every young person who walks through our doors. The mission is to enable all young people, especially those who need Boys & Girls Clubs most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.

With 25 locations throughout St. Lucie County, Boys & Girls Clubs programs serve a diverse group of kids from grades K-12. The Clubs offer daily access to a broad range of programs that promote health, social, educational, vocational, character, and leadership development. Club programs foster a sense of belonging, competence, usefulness, and influence that builds self-confidence and selfesteem.

Now, for the first time, Boys & Girls Clubs of St. Lucie County is serving two local high schools thanks to grants awarded to operate 21st Century Community Learning Centers. These centers provide academic and personal enrichment opportunities for young people to be exposed to a new educational environment with a project-based learning approach along with up to five certified teachers who are on-site to assist with academic support and tutoring. Programming includes hands-on learning in areas such as finance, geometry, reading comprehension, public speaking, and so much more. The Clubs also provide opportunities for personal and workforce development, physical fitness, and college preparation.

In addition to regularly-scheduled workforce readiness programming, Club teens have access to leadership opportunities such as Youth of the Year. This program is specifically designed to encourage young adults to discover their leadership potential and serve as a representative for their Club and community. Candidates from four different Clubs shared their stories at the Youth of the Year Celebration held in February at Treasure Coast Lexus.
