Boise has been named one of the 2008 100 Best Communities for Young People from the America's Promise Alliance, a national alliance dedicated to children and youth.
Nampa also won the award, which recognizes communities considered to be the best places for young people to grow up. More than 300 communities in 50 states applied.
Some of the youth-oriented programs listed in the report include the Mayor's Council on Children and Youth, which created an online network of after-school sites at www.after3boise.org, and construction of three new community centers to provide neighborhood-based programs for kids at schools.
