Girls and Boys Town, the original Father Flanagan's Boys' Home, is a leader in the treatment and care of abused, abandoned and neglected girls and boys. Throughout its nearly 90-year history, the nonprofit, nonsectarian organization has provided these children with a safe, caring, loving environment where they gain confidence to get better and learn skills to become productive citizens. Girls and Boys Town alumni have gone on to become successful in all facets of life.
Under the direction of Father Steven Boes, Girls and Boys Town cares for thousands of children and families each year from our programs located at 19 Sites in 15 states and the District of Columbia. Girls and Boys Town's National Headquarters and largest child-care facility are located at the world-famous, historic Village of Boys Town in Nebraska. To get a feel for life in our town, which has its own Zip Code, National Geographic ZipUSA describes how children live as part of our family.
Through our National Resource and Training Center, Girls and Boys Town continues to further its mission To Change the Way America Cares for Her Children and Families by partnering with communities, schools and other child-care organizations. We are continuously using proven technology to refine our programs and services in order to meet the growing and more diverse needs of today's children and families across the country.
