The Summer Urban Program (SUP) is run by the Phillips Brooks House Association (PBHA).  Each summer, approximately 150 college students live and work in various communities in Boston and Cambridge.  Serving over 800 youth ages 6 to 13, the summer programs consist of a morning of curricular, classroom-based enrichment and afternoons of field trips in and around Boston.  Each camp uses the city as a classroom without walls, and the summer culminates in final performances and trips.  An essential element of the summer program is community partnership; teens that were are often former campers are hired as junior or senior counselors, and parents and community leaders play an important role in working with the program. This is your chance to be part of a public service program that has been going strong since the 1960s!

As a Senior Counselor with SUP, you have the chance to work with a group of 10 children, teaching and mentoring them as you explore the city together.  All Senior Counselors receive free housing and a generous stipend. Email sup@pbha.org with questions.
