Bill Wilson Center is committed to working with the community to ensure that every youth has access to the variety of services needed to grow to be healthy and self-sufficient adults. Through the years, Bill Wilson Center has helped youth make positive changes in their lives.

With an emphasis on youth development, Bill Wilson Center programs focus on building self-confidence and developing personal assets. With these tools, youth can permanently change the direction of their lives.

While the agency is focused on youth, creating a healthy, safe community requires that people in all age groups receive the support they need. For this reason, Bill Wilson Center also offers services for adults and families.

Bill Wilson Center opened in 1973 and is named for one of the founders of the organization, a past mayor of the city of Santa Clara.
