Description
The Boyton Street Community has been serving families since 1987. We are best known for our positive youth development programs which have shaped the lives of so many children for thirty-eight years. Our After-School All-Stars program touts an enrollment of 45-60 children each school year. Our child nutrition programs have fed thousands of children healthy snacks, lunches, and suppers throughout the years.
