At the Boys & Girls Clubs, we recognize the vital role parents play in the success of their children, and we believe in creating strong partnerships to support each child’s journey. Our Parent Events are designed to engage families, offer insights into our programs, and highlight how parents and Clubs can work together to ensure every child thrives.
The Value of Parent Partnership
Parent involvement is key to children’s success, both inside the Club and at home. We believe in fostering strong relationships between parents and children by encouraging play, shared meals, and active participation in Club events. When parents engage in activities with their children, it reinforces family bonds and creates positive, lasting memories.
