Every kid deserves a place. A place to feel safe. A place to feel connected. A place to belong. Boys & Girls Clubs of Mid Central Coast provides such places – where kids can go after school and during the summer to grow beyond the classroom. Since the first doors opened in 1966, Boys & Girls Clubs of Mid Central Coast has a strong reputation for providing safe, educational and fun programs for local youth between the ages of 4-18. What started as one building—the flagship Railroad Clubhouse in Santa Maria—has now expanded to two counties and 13 Clubs, with more than 5,000 registered youth members.

Through outreach, including sponsored arts and sports programs, Boys & Girls Clubs of Mid Central Coast benefits an additional 4,000 local children each year. We believe every kid has what it takes. The mission and core values of Boys & Girls Clubs fuel our commitment to promoting safe, positive and inclusive environments for all. Boys & Girls Clubs of Mid Central Coast supports all youth and teens – of every race, ethnicity, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, ability, socio-economic status, and religion – in reaching their full potential.
