Every child deserves to feel safe, valued and loved.
We're on a mission to distribute Calm Down Kits to every family we serve. Each kit represents hope for a family working to create a safer home environment.
For every $25 donated, we will provide 5 Calm Down Kits to families currently receiving services at Boys Town.
Child trauma can lead to lifelong struggles with depression and self-worth. At Boys Town, we're changing this reality by equipping parents with proven strategies to stay calm during challenging moments.
Introducing the Calm Down Kit
Our research-backed Calm Down Kit contains two essential tools:
- A Kid Tool that helps children identify healthy ways to manage emotions
- A Parent Tool that gives adults a personalized Staying Calm Plan
Together, these tools prevent emotional situations from escalating, and create opportunities for positive teaching moments instead of harmful reactions.

I have no reservations that bringing Brogan to Boys Town was the right move at all. Boys Town is an important member of my family.
And I truly believe that Boys Town was really the foundation that helped me get to where I am today, not only as a man, as a professional, but also as a father and a husband.
I have said this to people before, that I did not know what was going on over there, in that square mile, but there are miracles that are taking place every single day over there.
I think Destiny would, honestly, I think she would be dead or in jail if it wasn't for Boys Town. Boys Town is our saving grace.
Boys Town luckily had the answer. Now that we're past it, now that he's home, we know we made the right decision.
