Narrative

Spend the summer experiencing various vocational, community and entrepreneurial experiences, developing your independence and socializing with peers. If you are age 16 or older, and have had little or no work experience, our summer work experience program will provide you with both paid summer work as well as creative business innovation events. Each week will be a combination of part–time community work, group business endeavors, meeting employees who are blind, learning about budgeting, volunteering and participating in recreational activities.

Students must have up-to-date immunizations, a photo ID, and be able to travel and work a minimum of 15 hours per week. Students will be living in a supervised dorm at a local suburban college campus preparing their own meals or eating in the college dining hall and engaging in the Boston area cultural, recreation and food scene!
