Sheriff Nick Cocchi’s Youth Leadership Academy summer day camp will serve approximately 100-120 children per week, ages 7-12 years old. The primary focus is on children with incarcerated parents and families who live in economically challenged neighborhoods around Hampden County. The Youth Leadership Academy is being provided free of charge to qualified families and will operate Monday through Friday every Summer. Breakfast and lunch will be provided for all campers unless children would like to bring their own. Breakfast begins at 7:30 AM and stops serving at 8:30 AM. Lunch will be served during the hours of 11:30 AM- 12:30 PM. Every camper must submit their most recent physical exam record as well as a Certificate of Immunizations within the last 18 months. This documentation must be received before registering for the Youth Leadership Academy. The YLA cannot guarantee enrollment if registration packets are incomplete or missing and documentation (i.e. missing signatures, medication forms, immunization records, etc.) For more information on the Youth Leadership Academy Summer Camp, please contact them directly.
