Beaumont
Chapter
AMB's Southeast Texas chapter — midnight basketball, life skills, and community empowerment for Jefferson County's youth in the Golden Triangle region.
AMB in Southeast Texas
The Beaumont Chapter serves Jefferson County — the heart of Southeast Texas' Golden Triangle region, anchored by Beaumont, Port Arthur, and Orange. This historically industrial corridor has faced decades of economic transition, and its youth communities have experienced the violence and opportunity barriers that AMB's model was specifically designed to address.
Alongside the Austin Chapter, Beaumont is part of AMB's Texas two-chapter network — bringing the organization's nationally proven midnight basketball model into Southeast Texas with structured late-night programming, life skills workshops, and deep community partnerships. Basketball is the hook; life transformation is the mission.
