St. Stephen's Youth Programs serves more than 600 children and teens who live in
lower income neighborhoods in Boston and Chelsea. We offer three core programs:
The mission of St. Stephen’s Youth Programs is to serve neighborhood children and
teens by providing them with a safe, challenging, and supportive community in which
they can thrive. We strive to build a community where all people feel safe, feel big,
and feel connected.
To fulfill that mission, our Youth Programs promote:
- Safety: Our gathering spaces are well-supervised and physically and
emotionally safe.
- Growth: Our integrated, year-round programming supports academic
progress, the development of new skills, and exposure to new activities and
experiences, all of which give children a bigger sense of themselves. As
children get older, there is an increased focus on developing life and leadership
skills and encouraging civic involvement and responsibility.
- Relationships: We encourage the development of a loving community based
on meaningful relationships between children, teens, parents, teachers, staff,
volunteers, and neighbors.
