MACSA’s Zero Drop Out Summer Youth Day Camp Program serves 200 of the community’s lowest income youth, ages 6-12. The program is designed to provide a safe environment for these youth who normally would spend their summers alone at home without supervision. Moreover, the program is designed to promote health, safety, and responsibility during the critical summer months. All activities are based on Project Cornerstone’s Youth Development Asset framework which promotes the skills necessary for youth success.

The Zero Drop Out Summer Youth Day Camp is offered in two cycles: (Session A is a four week cycle and targets youth who are not in summer school; Session B is a three week cycle and targets youth who attended summer school) from two sites in South Santa Clara County.
