Be a role model. Make camp possible for every child. Do you believe every child deserves to be fully included at camp? JCC Greater Boston is looking for a caring, patient, and enthusiastic Inclusion Coordinator to join our School Break Camps (December, February, Passover, and April school breaks). Inclusion Coordinators are part of our camp’s Inclusion Team, supervising and coordinating Advocate Camp Counselors, who work directly with campers with disabilities and individualized needs. Guided by ICPs (Individual Camper Plans) and supported by our Inclusion Team, Advocate Counselors partner with co-counselors to ensure that every camper is safe, supported, and fully included in their bunk and camp activities. The Inclusion Coordinator provides expertise and support, modifying ICPs as needed and facilitating communication between camp staff and families of campers receiving support. What you will do each day: Each morning, you’ll connect with camp staff and campers, making sure all feel welcomed and ready for the day. You’ll support campers in joining their bunk for activities – whether that means going over visual schedules or providing other tools, coaching or support. Throughout the day, you’ll model patience, empathy, and creativity as you help campers navigate challenges and celebrate successes. You’ll work closely with camp staff to adapt supports as needed. At the end of the day, you’ll leave knowing you made camp possible for a child who might not otherwise be able to fully participate. Why work with us? At our camps, the best part of the day is simple: the kids. Our staff say their favorite moments are playing games, cheering campers on at swim, creating art together, and bonding over shared interests. Staff describe camp as fun, dynamic, and inviting. Here, you’ll gain leadership skills, make lasting friendships, and create unforgettable experiences – for campers and yourself.
