Program accomplishments

  • OWBCs primary objective is to teach boys life skills. Our approach to helping a boy change his behavior is to develop internal controls and character. In our attempt to affect change in a boy there are four foundational skills that we build into the life of a group. These four cornerstones are structures and routines, plans, problem solving, and evaluation. If a boy makes these a part of his daily life, his chances for success are dramatically increased. OWBC served 42 families during the current year.
