Connect with new and diverse communities, work closely with local and national nonprofits, build relationships and change perceptions during IMPACT: Boston. During your two weeks in Boston, on the Brandeis University campus you’ll work alongside peers from across the country and community service experts to do meaningful service and training, while building the foundation of your community leadership for years to come.
"I have been on five summer programs over the past three years, and I have never encountered a more meaningful one. I went into IMPACT: Boston expecting to impact the local community, but instead the local community impacted me. I feel blessed that I had the opportunity to be so greatly changed, inspired, touched, and impacted by a program, and I intend to promote and advocate this program as frequently as possible so that each and every individual who I know can partake in such a fantastic experience."
-Jason Brillon
