Transforming lives on Boston's island of opportunity
The Story
Just offshore in the Boston harbor lies an island of opportunity. Camp Harbor View is a unique experience that transforms the lives of hundreds of kids from challenged neighborhoods. It was conceived ten years ago when Boston's beloved Mayor Menino approached Jack Connors with his concerns about Boston youth's options during the long summer holidays. Twelve years after its inception, thousands of lives have been touched and transformed. It is a powerful reminder of the importance of how positive intervention at critical points in children's development can change outcomes for not only individuals but communities and even the city of Boston.
