Summer DAYS
Our free, six-week Summer DAYS project has been offered every year since 1970. Children and youth ages 5 to 17 spend six weeks in a safe, productive, and nurturing environment.
The free program provides:
- Academic Reinforcement
- Enrichment
- Recreation
- Nutrition
Every summer, participants learn academic and social skills necessary to navigate the world, develop a strengthened desire to grow as responsible citizens, and learn about themselves and their community. All while having a great time!
DAYSLB Summer DAYS provides personalized attention through a low child-to-adult ratio, focusing on topic areas that align with the Long Beach Unified School District curriculum. DAYS Long Beach provides transportation and partners with a variety of local agencies to offer field trips and fun learning experiences.
Summer DAYS is hosted at First Congregational Church, located on Third and Cedar in the heart of downtown Long Beach. The facilities include a computer lab, seven classrooms, a gymnasium, a multi-purpose room with performance stage, and an enclosed courtyard for safe play. All set within the grounds of one of Long Beach’s most historic buildings.
