At Alameda Boys & Girls Club, Child Safety is Job Number one!

Ensuring child safety is fundamental to our mission. We work every day to create a safe, fun environment so kids can have every opportunity to be successful in life. We have zero tolerance for inappropriate behavior of any kind, including child sexual abuse or misconduct, and we have policies and procedures to support this stance. We strictly follow the measures below to ensure we provide the safest Club environment possible to our Members.

Safety Culture

Alameda Boys & Girls Club continually updates robust safety policies, programs, and trainings for our staff and volunteers that are designed to promote child safety and protect young people from threats that are present in our society. Mandatory criminal background checks are required for every staff and board member of the Club. In addition, Live Scan criminal background checks administered by the Alameda Police Department are required for any volunteer that will have direct contact with a child.

Safety Committee

Alameda Boys & Girls Club has a dedicated Safety Committee to provide input and guidance on local policies and safety strategies. Our Safety Committee consists of Board Members and members of the Alameda Police and Fire Departments.

Nationally, Boys & Girls Clubs of America has advocated the passage of the US PROTECT Act which improves background screening systems and access. The national organization has also partnered with the FBI, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and the Centers for Disease Control to contribute to the development of safety practices that benefit all youth-serving organizations. 


America’s young people deserve nothing less than our constant focus on their safety and our firm commitment to protect every child who is entrusted to our care at Alameda Boys & Girls Club. To learn more about our national safety policies and actions, please visit
