University Settlement’s Beacon Program engages young people with opportunities that bolster their self-confidence, open their eyes to future options, and nurture a sense of belonging within the larger community.

We offer summer camp and creative and physical after-school activities for middle school and high school students.

Beacon’s summer camp programming makes room for kids to focus on a particular skill or hobby of choice, developing their skills to a higher level while partnering with peers in educational and recreational activities. Throughout the year, young people participate in a wide range of activities, detailed below.
