Abstract

Foundations Community Partnership’s (FCP) Summer Youth Corps is much more than a typical summer internship. Launched in 2008, the program melds community service, non-profit collaboration, academics, and experiential education for college students returning to Bucks County for the summer. Since FCP’s inception as a philanthropic, grant-making foundation, the Summer Youth Corps has become an integral part of its mission to support the behavioral health and human service needs of children and young adults in Bucks County.
