This series documents the governance organizations and committees of the Boston Armed Services YMCA, primarily the Massachusetts Trustees of the International Committee of YMCA for Army and Navy Work, Inc.
The series includes the records of the Boston Armed Services YMCA Committee of Management, subcommittee of the trustees, which oversees the operations and programming of the Boston Armed Services YMCA. In 2001, the committee was renamed the Advisory Committee.

They may also include materials from other levels of governance (e.g. some Committee of Management meeting packets are comprised of minutes from National YMCA and Massachusetts Trustees of International Committee meetings.)
The History and Mission file contains histories of the Boston Armed Services YMCA, and Armed Services YMCA of the USA, and the YMCA of the USA.
