Camp Harbor View changes lives and transforms Boston’s communities by exposing historically underserved youth Camp Harbor View changes lives and transforms Boston’s communities by exposing historically underserved youth to the possibilities of a future they may have never envisioned.

Camp Harbor View staff are responsible for fostering that environment and have the great privilege to model our values for our campers.

We strive to build a staff and board that is reflective of the communities that we serve.
