Introduction:	Many children have no adult supervision after school. Studies have shown that the hours between 3 and 8 p.m. are the hours that most kids are likely to get involved with crimes, be victims of crime or engage in other risky behavior. The Clubs provide an alternative to the dangers of the streets. Moreover, the Clubs provide stimulating activities that help build character, self-esteem, values and skills. Boys and Girls Clubs of the East Valley offers that and more! Our Clubs instill a sense of competence, usefulness, belonging and influence. The Ladmo Branch - Tempe Branch offers an after school program, youth sports leagues, teen leadership, homework and tutoring assistance. The Ladmo Branch-Tempe was established in 1963 as the first Branch of the Boys and Girls Clubs of the East Valley. We are now part of the Westside Community Center, which opened its doors on September 4, 2001 in the same location as the original Club in Jaycee Park. Along with 11 other partners in the building, we work together to address the needs of the community and residents of all ages. The Ladmo Branch, Tempe assumed responsibility for entire facility on July 01, 2003 in a visionary partnership with City of Tempe. The community we serve in west Tempe is unique. We have an extremely mobile population and an ethnically diverse membership--the most diverse of any club in the East Valley. We serve youth and teens and support programming for preschoolers, adults and seniors. Additionally, the city of Tempe, in partnership with the Tempe Branch of the Boys and Girls Clubs of the East Valley, was named one of 100 Best Communities for Young People, by America’s Promise to Youth (2005-2006). In 2005 we were a designated “SAFE PLACE” for kids on behalf of Homebase Youth Services. And, lastly, the Ladmo Branch is home to the 2002-03 National Youth of the Year, Donald Smith and 2010 National Youth of the Year Mona Dixon.
