Supporting Growth with the Boys & Girls Club of South Elgin

Partnering with the Boys & Girls Club of South Elgin has been an incredible experience.

The Club’s welcoming environment—including a sensory room—provides the perfect setting for our programs, giving members a safe and supportive space to learn, grow, and explore new skills. We are grateful to contribute to such a meaningful community initiative.

• Summer 2024 – We offered the Feeling & Being Better series to a small group of members during summer camp. Away from the hustle and bustle, participants learned mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills. 100% of participants could clearly explain the program’s goals.
• Winter 2025 – We returned to offer the series again during the after-school program. 100% of participants reported confidence in applying the skills they learned.

Through this partnership, youth continue to gain the tools needed for self-awareness, resilience, and lifelong growth.
