Welcome to Big Brothers Big Sisters of South-Central PA
Our mission: Create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth.
Our vision: All youth achieve their full potential.
By partnering with parents/guardians, volunteers and others in the community we are accountable for each child in our program achieving higher aspirations, greater confidence, educational success, and better relationships while avoiding risk-taking behaviors.
In October 2024 we broadened our reach from 5 to 7 counties through the acquisition of the BBBS York & Adams Counties affiliate. To align with our new service region, we changed our name to Big Brothers Big Sisters of South-Central PA!
By expanding into these new counties, Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) of South-Central PA is poised to make an even greater impact on the lives of youth, helping them reach their full potential. Our one-to-one mentoring programs are grounded in evidence-based practices that help young people develop the skills and confidence needed to navigate life’s challenges.
