Boys Town Snapshot
Since its founding in 1917, Boys Town has welcomed all children, regardless of background or circumstances. At the time, this was seen as controversial, but Father Flanagan stood firm and embraced every child who needed hope, a home and a helping hand. His courage and values made Boys Town one of the first intentionally integrated communities in the United States.
Father Flanagan’s unwavering belief in treating each person individually remains the foundation of Boys Town. Today, we continue that legacy by building a culture of respect for all. We aim to attract, develop and retain employees who feel safe, valued and empowered to bring their full selves to work. Fostering a sense of belonging is at the heart of our mission to save children and heal families.
