Project

Overview

Project Learn reinforces and enhances the skills and knowledge young people learn at school during the hours they spend at the Club. This comprehensive program strategy is based on the research of Dr. Reginald Clark showing that students do much better in school when they spend their non-school hours engaged in fun, but academically beneficial, activities. Project Learn has been proven to boost the academic performance of Club members.

Our youth have benefitted from the implementation of Project Learn and the support of an overall strategy for education in the Club to achieve greater outcomes for more of our young people.

To ensure we support every young person who enters our Clubs, we have a comprehensive approach to youth development. This approach is outlined in our Formula for Impact. The Formula for Impact has been developed over decades to explain the Boys & Girls Clubs’ vision for creating greater outcomes in the lives of the youth we serve. Our Club offers a variety of programs that support youth in achieving positive outcomes in our three priority areas of Academic Success, Good Character and Citizenship, and Healthy Lifestyles.

Our research-informed Formula for Impact describes our strategy for infusing positive youth development into all programs.
