Summer Camp Counselors and Support Staff Placements

Placements available on the J-1 Visa program through the U.S. Department of State. Work placements of up to 3 months at a U.S. summer camp, followed by an optional 1 month travel period. * Counselors Counselors care for a group of campers 24 hours a day for 8 to 15 weeks. While this job can be exhausting, it is also very rewarding. Counselors are role models for their campers and can profoundly impact their lives. A strong counselor speaks fluent English, is mature and flexible and has a good sense of humor. * Support Staff Support staff are responsible for the behind-the-scenes work that keeps camp running, such as maintenance, laundry, housekeeping, and cooking. In some camps, you may only do one job all summer and in others, you may rotate jobs throughout the week. Support staff jobs require long hours of physical labor, but you'll receive a slightly higher stipend than counselors.

My experience abroad was one of the most impactful periods of my life, both personally and professionally. Living and working in a different country pushed me outside my comfort zone and allowed me to see the world through a new lens. I learned how to communicate across cultures, adapt quickly to unfamiliar situations, and approach challenges with flexibility and resilience. Being immersed in a new environment helped me develop a deeper appreciation for diverse perspectives, traditions, and ways of thinking. Whether navigating daily life, collaborating with local colleagues, or exploring new places, I gained cultural awareness and confidence that will stay with me forever. This experience also strengthened my professional skills. I enhanced my problem-solving abilities, expanded my global mindset, and became more resourceful and independent. Most importantly, I built meaningful relationships with people from different backgrounds, which enriched my understanding of the world and broadened my sense of community. Overall, my time abroad was a powerful reminder of how much growth comes from stepping beyond the familiar. It opened doors, shaped my values, and left me with lessons I’ll carry forward for years to come.
