About Headmasters and Boys & Girls Club

• Mission: To enable all youth, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.
• Each day 1,200 Lawrence youth attend a Boys & Girls Club after school program.  The program serves students from 14 elementary schools and three junior highs.
• The staff provides children with activities designed to capture their interests, teach skills and build supportive relationships- which provide the opportunity to communicate rules and expectations; take meaningful challenges; build self-confidence and self-esteem; and offer hope and opportunity.

• Has served the Lawrence community for over 36 years in the historic Lucy Hobbs-Taylor house.  With our professional team of stylists providing hair, skin, massage and make-up treatments for Headmasters' clientele.
• Through our joint efforts with Aveda we've dedicated to environmental sustainability both in and outside of the beauty industry.  This includes our large community garden- the only of its kind in downtown.
