Boys Clubhouse Case Study
To the Abbe Clubhouse community,

Since 1876, the mission of the Boys’ Club of New York is to empower boys and young men by providing effective programs and a supportive community. Unlike the YMCA and the Boy’s and Girl's Club, the Boys’ Club is a non profit organization. This entails that the funding the Boys’ Club receives comes from donations from private donors. These donations are not necessarily consistent and on a regular basis.

Recently, the clubhouse has placed a limit as to how many members it can enroll for the school year. In addition, the minimum age a child can be registered at the Abbe Clubhouse will

    When offered league sponsorship opportunities, our team was 2-2 with eleven credits left to spend. After dealing with injuries to key starters, Keenan Allen and Danny Woodhead, we were left with fewer credits than our team desired. Thus, the idea of adding credits initially intrigued our group. One of our team members, however, reminded us that our eleven credits was better than many of the other teams in the league. Adding credits to teams in the league would only force us to pay more for players in free agency. This would also hurt our leverage in potential trades with teams that desperately need credits. Although it may seem counterintuitive to not want more credits, our team has a goal of winning the Super Bowl for our fans and value winning…

    Gang Vs Club Analysis

    Participation in a club is seen as a part of a well-rounded person, and teenagers are told when they are applying for college that they will look more appealing if they have participated in many community changing clubs. As people get older they are asked to participate in a clubs ranging from parent-student clubs or book clubs. A club represents a way to enjoy oneself and work outside of one’s profession; it is known as an activity of high esteem. People who participate in clubs are often seen as people who have good time management and a big heart. Many clubs promote volunteer work, team activities, leadership, and help foster morality as well as good choices that will benefit a whole community. One of the specific reasons that clubs are seen as a positive part of our culture is because all school clubs consist of administration approved activities, and because of this it doesn’t allow for a negative club to be created. Clubs can only exist if apart of one of the following categories: fundraising, community service, career interest and interpersonal dynamic. Because of this the word “club” will never be associated with anything other than a group of people who want to divulge themselves into a hobby or service project. Clubs originated in the Victorian times in Britain, functioning as a place for men to attend lectures and participate in recreational activities. Over time they developed as a part of women’s culture (book club, sewing club, cooking club). This was especially true throughout times when women were supposed to be only the care takers of the house and children, as well as social with other mothers. Since then they have developed a connotation that pushes children and adults to be progressive, have a hobby outside of work, and enjoy themselves while (most of the time) helping…

    Carol T. Mowbray, Lisa Lewandowski, Mark Holter, and Deborah Bybee Attention to psychosocial rehabilitation (PSR) practice has expanded in recent years. However, social work research studies on PSR are not numerous. This study focuses on operational characteristics of clubhouses, a major PSR program model, and the organizational attributes (including resource levels) that predict the extent to which the clubhouse constitutes an empowering setting. The authors present data from a statewide sample of 30 clubhouses, annually serving nearly 4,000 consumers (adults with serious mental illnesses), based on interviews of clubhouse directors, on-site observations, and government information sources. Results indicate that users were predominantly male, white, and middle age; about one-third had a major functional disabihty. There were wide variations in member characteristics as well as in resource levels. In terms of empowerment, this sample of clubs averaged rather low levels of member involvement in governance and operations but seemed to provide members with opportunities and assistance in making their own decisions. The empowerment variables had different predictors, including client characteristics, urban-related characteristics, staffing, and resource levels. Imphcations for social work practice in PSR settings are discussed.…
