Partnership with Unite Us to Provide Free Access to Online Resources for Local Clubs

WEB ATLANTA, Aug. 23, 2023 -- BUSINESS WIRE --

Boys & Girls Clubs of America, one of the nation's largest youth-serving organizations, today released its Youth Outcomes Report, highlighting the positive impact the organization is making in the lives of young people across the country.

The report, which is based on data from the 2022-2023 school year, shows that Boys & Girls Clubs members are making significant gains in academic achievement, social-emotional development, and healthy lifestyles. For example, members who participate in the Club's academic programs are more likely to graduate from high school and attend college than their peers who do not participate in Club programs.

In addition to the release of the Youth Outcomes Report, Boys & Girls Clubs of America also announced today that it is partnering with Unite Us, a national non-profit organization that provides a platform for health and human service providers to connect and coordinate care. This partnership will provide local Boys & Girls Clubs with free access to Unite Us' online platform and training for their staff on how to use the platform to connect members with the resources they need.

"We are excited to partner with Unite Us to provide our local Clubs with access to this valuable platform," said Jim Clark, president and CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of America. "Unite Us will help us to connect our members with the resources they need to succeed in school, stay healthy, and make positive choices for their future."
