What Makes Boys Town Successful Book

Discover how Boys Town created a legacy of caring for children and families in crisis through a philosophy that bridges cutting-edge child-care technologies with compassion and love.

Described in these pages by Executive Director Val J. Peter are the four facets of Boys Town's 21st Century Teaching Model—training, clinical consultation, evaluation, and administration. The Model, grounded in research and ever-evolving based on what we learn from our clinical work with children and families, is based on the principles of teaching skills, building healthy relationships, and empowerment through self-government. Read how these principles, instilled by highly trained, professional Family-Teachers, offer each of our children hope, healing, and "the best opportunity to be a successful person."

This book is designed for anyone committed to revolutionizing the way America cares for its troubled girls and boys.
