​​Boys Town Washington DC values employee recognition during the holiday season. Every year, they host an all-staff holiday party for everyone to attend. Each staff member receives an award to recognize their contribution to the mission of Boys Town. One employee from each department is also awarded employee of the year plaques for going above and beyond in their position.

The Family Homes at Boys Town Washington DC also get in the holiday spirit. Every year, they decorate as a family with lights and festive holiday decorations. A large tree is also decorated that sits in the middle of the circle drive where all the Family Homes are located.​
