About Us:
Today, youth in Snohomish county face tough problems.... growing up has never had more obstacles.
For many years, the Boys & Girls clubs of Snohomish County have been in the forefront of youth development, dedicated to ensuring that all of our youth have a greater access to recreational and educational activities that will enhance their lives and shape their future.

In addition we have 2 Clubs in Island County (Oak Harbor & Coupeville) and one Club in Kitsap County (Kingston).
