Changing the way America cares for children and families.
About us
Boys Town has been a national leader in the care and treatment of children since its founding more than 100 years ago by Father Edward Flanagan. As one of the largest nonprofit, nonsectarian child and family care organizations in the country, Boys Town provides compassionate, research-proven treatment for behavioral, emotional and physical problems. Boys Town’s outreach is national in scope, with treatment and care programs at more than a dozen sites across the country. We believe that every child, regardless of circumstance, deserves the opportunity to succeed. We also recognize that every child is an individual with unique needs. That’s why, over many decades, we have developed a distinctive, research-based approach to achieving our vision that has proven successful for tens of thousands of children and families.

#JusticeIs standing against all forms of discrimination. Father Flanagan once said, “It costs so little to teach a child to love, and too much to teach him to hate." Boys Town was the target of condemnation and threats for daring to welcome children of every color and faith. Despite the prevailing social pressures and attitudes of the era, Father Flanagan never bowed to bigotry. #YouthJusticeActionMonth #YJAM #YJAM2024 #JuvenileJusticeReform
