Boys & Girls Club Of Easton & The Easton Teen Center

Mission: The Boys & Girls Club of Easton will enable all young people, especially those who need us most, and their families, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.
Vision: Teaming quality leadership with people and programming, we will be an affordable, accessible, fun, youth-driven club that helps members constructively channel their lives through academic, cultural, athletic, health, arts enrichment, and spiritual programs resulting in educated, skilled, and moral citizens and community leaders.

Description:
The Boys & Girls Club of Easton has actively sought to enrich the lives of girls and boys whom other youth serving agencies have had difficulty reaching. We are dedicated to ensuring that our community’s disadvantaged youngsters have greater access to quality programs and services that will enhance their lives and shape their futures. The Club operates from 2 facilities, the Easton Teen Center a.k.a. The Club, is located at 1101 Northampton Street, in Easton's West Ward area, and currently the Club operates youth programs during after-school hours from Cheston Elementary school, on the South side of Easton. The Club's administrative offices are in the Alpha Building, 1 S. 3rd Street, 8th Floor, downtown Easton. Currently the Club has relocated from the Delaware Terrace Public Housing Development because of the HOPE VI Redevelopment by the Housing Authority.
