At the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Oxnard and Port Hueneme, we believe that every child has the potential to achieve greatness. Since our inception in 1954, we have been dedicated to providing a safe and positive environment for young people to learn, grow, and thrive. With a strong focus on character development, education, and career preparation, we strive to empower the next generation of leaders and responsible citizens.
With three full-service clubs, 13 school program sites, and one housing site, we are one of the largest Boys & Girls Clubs in California, serving over 7,200 members annually. Our reach extends beyond traditional club settings, as we are also the first Boys & Girls Club in the state to open a site inside a Juvenile Justice Center. This allows us to reach at-risk youth and provide them with the support and guidance they need to turn their lives around.
Our programs are designed to support the holistic development of our members. Through character and leadership development, we instill values such as integrity, respect, and responsibility. Our education and career development programs equip youth with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in school and in their future careers. We also offer programs in health and life skills, the arts, technology, and sports, fitness, and recreation, providing our members with a diverse range of opportunities to discover their passions and talents.
At the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Oxnard and Port Hueneme, we are committed to creating a positive impact in our community. Through partnerships with local schools, businesses, and organizations, we are able to expand our reach and provide even more resources and support to the youth we serve. We are also grateful for the dedicated volunteers and staff who work tirelessly to ensure that our members have the tools and support they need to reach their full potential.
In our over 65 years of service, we have seen countless young people grow and thrive within our organization. Many have gone on to become successful adults and give back to their communities, a testament to the lasting impact of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Oxnard and Port Hueneme. We are proud to continue our mission of inspiring and enabling all youth to realize their full potential, and we invite you to join us in making a difference in the lives of young people in our community.
