Summer Experiences
Gaining Experiences that Foster Independence and Growth
We connect students and graduates with meaningful summer opportunities that encourage personal growth, independence, and exploration beyond their everyday environments. Through enriching experiences, young people build confidence, develop new skills, and form connections with new communities and peers. Summer opportunities may include off-campus camps, enrichment programs, leadership experiences, and paid employment opportunities such as earn-while-you-learn programs offered through partners like C2L-PHL, NorthBay Adventure Camp, and other community organizations.
Sleepaway Camps
Graduate Support works with a wide range of overnight summer camps from northern New England to Virginia. Camps partner with St. James to provide scholarships and ensure a meaningful experience for our students and graduates. We arrange for transportation.
