Union League Boys & Girls Clubs

The Union League Boys & Girls Clubs strives to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens. We currently serve 15,918 enrolled members between the ages of 6 and 18 at 21 locations. Each day, more than 2,000 youth take part in programming focused on academic success, healthy lifestyles, and good character and citizenship. For over 100 years, the Union League Boys & Girls Clubs have served the after-school development needs of at-risk youth in Chicago. The organization also staffs and manages its own 247-acre summer camp in Salem, Wisconsin where youth from Chicago's inner city participate in enrichment activities in an environment free from drugs, gangs, and violence. In 2014, the Union League Boys & Girls Clubs launched a programming initiative at the Cook County Juvenile Temporary Detention Center aimed at reducing the high rate of recidivism among juvenile detainees.
