Reimagining Summer Vocations

The Community to Community (C2C) Impact Engine recently published a new resource titled Building Opportunity: A Research-Informed Model for Summer Youth Employment. This manual, co-authored by C2C Executive Director Alicia Modestino, draws from over a decade of research and on-the-ground experience in Boston to provide a practical framework for designing effective youth jobs programs. The manual is publicly available on C2C’s website and is intended to support cities, practitioners, and policymakers working to expand youth employment.
