Programs

Series 4. Program Services is comprised of the records of the Director of Operations, Assistant Directors of Operations, and Program Developer. The series is organized alphabetically within each office. These three creating offices deal directly with program planning, development, and implementation.

A. Director of Operations (9.5 cubic ft.) consists of the records of Bob Monahan (bulk 1976-1999). The subseries is comprised of correspondence with clubhouse staff, financial reports, meeting minutes, and program information and reports. Notably, extensive records concerning the clubhouses, including the design, construction, and development of the Blue Hill Avenue Clubhouse, are present. Monahan was also the Director of the South Boston clubhouse in the 1980's. Records documenting his directorship are also in this subseries.

The records consist of correspondence, reports, minutes, and program information. Both Assistant Directors were involved with programs in partnership with external organizations, such as the Best Year in School Ever program. This involvement with the community is represented throughout their records.
