NCCJ Anytown

About

Anytown is a week-long, residential summer leadership camp founded by the National Conference for Community and Justice (NCCJ) in 1957 that brings together diverse groups of high schoolers, ages 14-18, to examine prejudice, bias, and identity and build inclusive-community skills. The program is run independently by regional NCCJ chapters across the country rather than through one national office, so exact dates, costs, and application steps vary by region. Local chapters state that financial assistance is available so that cost is not a barrier to attending.
