• See Schedule OHealthy Lifestyles programs help members lead healthy, active lifestyles while reducing the likelihood of at-risk behaviors. Core Programs offered at the clubs include Smart Moves, Smart Girls, Passport to Manhood, and Triple Play Healthy Habits. Smart Moves participants are exposed to various activities designed to hone decision-making and critical-thinking skills, as well as learning how to avoid and/or resist alcohol, tobacco, other drugs, and premature sexual activity. Smart Girls is designed to meet the developmental needs of Clubs girls by exploring their own and societal attitudes and values as they build skills for eating right, staying physically fit, getting good healthcare, and developing positive relationships with peers and adults. Passport to Manhood promotes and teaches responsibility in club boys by engaging them in discussions and by helping youth understand the importance of college, academic preparation, discovering strengths and interests, college search and application process, financial aid, and college expectations.

• The Life & Workforce Readiness program is an integrated framework and approach that provides foundational skills and experiences, foundational career education, and advanced opportunities including work-based learning for youth in the Greater Houston region.

• Family Engagement is a family-centered and strengths-based approach to making decisions, setting goals, and achieving desired outcomes for our club members and their families. BGCGH believes in creating and sustaining strong relationships with families through engagement, empowerment, and access to community partners to positively impact the well-being of the whole family. BGCGH achieves this through family engagement, parent roundtables, and family fun fests. Family engagement events are BGCGH events in which parents are invited as the audience as well as participants. The added criteria to BGCGH events which makes these events unique is an intentional thought of including community partners that will add benefit to families through these connections. We use this opportunity to bridge the gap of services that are available within a given community, which parents may not otherwise have. Parents receive information, ask questions, and sign up for various services during our family engagement events. Clubs are required to have a minimum of two family engagement events per year. Family roundtables are BGCGH club meetings held with parents of club members and are facilitated by the club director. The goal of parent roundtables is to solicit input/feedback from parents regarding the club experience. Typically, 10 -15 parents are invited to participate in the roundtables. The roundtable atmosphere is a "safe" place in which parents are invited to share positive experiences and as well as share opportunities for the club to optimize the club experience for members and parents. Clubs are required to have a minimum of two roundtables per year. Family fun fests are typically Saturday events at clubs designed to provide FUN for club members and parents. Family fun fests are similar to traditional family engagement events as community partners who can provide benefit to families are invited. The added component making family fun fests different from traditional family engagement is a carnival-like atmosphere focused on engagement of club staff, club members, parents, and community partners. Clubs are clustered for family fun fests (those within a reasonable vicinity) while others have individual family fun fests (those in rural areas not in reasonable distance).

The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total.
