About Crossroads

Crossroads empowers youth to unlock their potential and positively impact the world.

At Crossroads, we believe that every young person has the ability to unlock their potential and positively impact the world. It is our goal to provide guidance, resources, and confidence to all of our young people, while also showing them respect, friendship, and an unwavering commitment to help them transform into informed individuals and leaders. As a Crossroads family made up of participants and their caregivers, staff, donors, and friends, we stand united in supporting our young people as they become economically independent citizens, socially responsible leaders, and emotionally connected adults. One summer with Crossroads can grow into a lifetime of opportunities.

Crossroads delivers multi-year summer and school-year programs which prepare Massachusetts young people for postsecondary success and to serve as leaders in their careers, communities, and beyond.

Our programs, serving grades K—12, are designed for youth to build long-term relationships with mentors and peers who encourage personal achievement while engaging in a multi-year curriculum focused on social/emotional learning, leadership development, college & career success, and civic engagement.

Reviews

Camp Counselor

June 2023 - August 2023 Brewster, MA
“I loved being able to work with my kiddos and really make connections and make a change. Not only did I help shape and mold the kids but they help shape and mold me.”

Social Work Intern

June 2019 - August 2019 Jerusalem, Jerusalem
“I loved being able to interact and work with teens who may have been struggling with mental illness, experiencing homelessness, or experiencing any other issues. Working in a country with a completely new culture and language was one of the most challenging, yet rewarding experiences I have ever done. Being able to apply all of my skills that I have learned through my courses at Westfield State in real life situations was beyond exciting!”
