About BGCV:  The Boys & Girls Club of Venice is one of over 4,300 Boys & Girls Clubs nationwide. The BGCV’s Mission is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.

Overview of Programs:  Boys & Girls Club of Venice offers young people a range of fun and productive activities. The Club is open each day after school from 2:00 to 7:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during the breaks. Research has shown that during this time of day, children are most vulnerable to gangs, violence and other risky behaviors.

A trained, caring staff implements proven youth development strategies and creates a stable, supportive and promising environment for children and teens ages 6 to 18. BGCV knows with an education, good health and job skills, our Club members can accomplish their dreams.

The Club’s provide diverse activities, that we call Core Programs, to meet the interests of all youth. These programs engage young people in activities with adults, peers and family members, enable them to develop self-esteem and provide them a solid platform to reach their full potential. The Core Programs developed and implemented in our Club are based on the physical, emotional, cultural and social needs and interests of the youth served.
