The Crossroads Junior Leaders program provides youth with overnight summer camp and school year enrichment experiences that build confidence, strengthen social/emotional and executive functioning skills, and provide opportunities for community service. Participants engage in outdoor education, arts enrichment, service learning, and begin the process of exploring and mapping out their path to college and career.
Participation in Junior Leaders helps young people explore their place in the world and identify goals for the future, while developing social/emotional, critical thinking, problem-solving and leadership skills. After attending two to eight weeks of overnight summer camp at either Camp Wing in Duxbury or Camp Mitton, participants are nominated for Junior Leaders by their camp counselors. Children are selected based on their demonstrated ability to make good choices, remain positive and helpful in challenging situations, and for exhibiting the potential to be a young leader in their community. Schools and community agency staff can also nominate children for Junior Leaders based on these same qualities. Families are asked to commit to Junior Leaders from 3rd—7th grade, to participate in one or more overnight summer camp sessions each year, and to attend weekend overnights at the Camp Wing in Duxbury during the school year.
