MYPlace

“MY Place” Mankato Youth Place, opened in October 2018 as Boys & Girls Club of Mankato to be:

1) A Safe Place for kids to learn and grow

2) Staffed with caring, adult professionals who develop ongoing relationships with members

3) Life-enhancing programs and character development experiences

4) Hope and opportunity

In the fall of 2019 we began a transition to MY Place. The name is a reflection of community and youth engagement and ownership of the space.

MY Place will provide youth with programs to support success in school, a healthy lifestyle and character and leadership skills to prepare them to become contributing community members. The mission of Boys & Girls Club will continue on with MY Place to empower all young people, especially those who need us most, to realize their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring community members by providing every child access to a safe, nurturing, educational environment that positively impacts their lives.
