offer by looking through this booklet. Summer is a great time to be in
Boston and there is so much to do. Inside you will find something for
everyone whether you are looking for a traditional summer day camp,
swimming or fitness lessons, a structured drop in program or a
special class - it’s all here! In addition, you can check out what other
City of Boston departments are offering this summer by visiting
Boston.Gov. I am looking forward to summer, and seeing you and your
family as I travel the City!
Sincerely,
Martin J. Walsh Mayor of Boston

SuccessLink Youth Employment Program July 5-August 12 Boston youth ages 15-18 can register online to be eligible for a summer job from February-March. Once registered, youth can apply to work at over 200 community-based organizations in a wide-range of positions ranging from camp counselors to community organizers, and artists to urban farmers. Each meaningful job experience provides youth the opportunity to learn from field experts while discovering new skills and a better understanding of the workforce they will encounter in the future. Youth employees also complete work readiness trainings including resume writing, effective communication, and interview skills, among others.
Youth Lead the Change: Participatory Budgeting youthleadboston.org May The Youth Lead the Change initiative allows Boston's young people to decide how to spend $1 million of the city's capital budget. In May, youth ages 12-25 vote on which projects they want to be funded at polling locations across the city. Only those projects voted on by youth will be funded and implemented in the coming months.
MORE TO COME! There are always special events, new programs, and fun activities being
added to our offerings - check our website for updates!
