What began as the vision of one man, Father Edward J. Flanagan, Boys Town has been on a mission to change the way America cares for children and families for more than 100 years. Father Flanagan’s dream continues to thrive today, thanks to the heart-felt dedication and collaborative efforts of the entire Boys Town employee team, whose work brings our mission to life every day.
With over a century of service, our employees have helped us grow from a small boardinghouse in downtown Omaha, Nebraska, into one of the largest national child and family care organizations in the country.
Our employees are our #1 supporters when it comes to achieving Boys Town's mission, which is why we are proud of their commitment to making the world a better place for children, families, patients, and communities. Unique perks to Boys Town employees and their families include the ability to see BT Physicians at reduced or no cost and free prescriptions under the Boys Town Medical Plan, tuition assistance, parenting resources from our experts and professional development opportunities within the organization, just to name a few. Working at Boys Town is more than just a job, it is a way of life.
Boys Town is a leading, national nonprofit organization that offers exceptional care for the behavioral, emotional and physical health of children, families and patients. From residential care and in-home family services to parenting classes, support to schools and communities, and a 24-hour crisis hotline, Boys Town’s diversified, research-based youth care and healthcare services provide effective care to those who need it most.
Boys Town's National Headquarters and largest residential care program are located at the world-famous, historic Village of Boys Town in Nebraska. Seven additional locations across the United States offer child and family services providing healing and hope to children and families in their communities and surrounding areas.
Working at Boys Town is not just a job. It’s a chance to make a real difference in the lives of those who turn to us for hope, healing and a new beginning. Last year alone, Boys Town employees positively impacted more than 500,000 children and families in all 50 states. We know that our reputation as a national leader in child, family and health care is the direct result of the knowledge, integrity and shared mission of our valuable employees who are proud to say, “I work at Boys Town.”
