Thank you for your interest in becoming a Junior Counselor at Action Kids this summer. Our Junior Counselor program is both lots of fun and challenging!  We provide our Junior Counselors with leadership skills training, ongoing supervision and daily opportunities to put leadership into practice.  Junior Counselors work directly with the Leadership Program Leader and the Camp Director on teamwork, communication, problem solving and camper supervision.  Junior Counselors are required to commit to a minimum of 15 days over the course of the summer.

The Junior Counselor program is application based. Please make sure you complete all the steps.  Incomplete applications will not be considered.

Expectations:

Our Junior Counselors are expected to be positive role models all day, of every day they are with us!  Campers of all ages look to our Junior Counselors for care and direction.  We expect our Junior Counselors to demonstrate:

• A high degree of personal responsibility​
• A high level of maturity
• Personal initiative and the ability to work independently
• The ability to work positively and cooperatively with others throughout the camp day
• A genuine desire to work with children
• Successful participation in the Action Kids L.I.T. program (or a similar leadership or childcare focused experience)
