Started in 2013 by the Boston Private Industry Council, the Summer Fund, and Hale Reservation, and generously supported by Bank of America, the Teen Leadership Institute provides students with tools and training to help them achieve success in a summer camp counselor job, and beyond. In 2015, 245 students from 30 Boston public high schools participated in a full-day of training at Hale Reservation during April vacation. Of those students, 179 were ultimately placed in summer jobs during the summer of 2015.
