Join Us for a FOCUS Summer Program!
FOCUS hosts numerous programs on our property on Lambert’s Cove located in the town of West Tisbury on Martha’s Vineyard. Each summer, nearly 700 students visit the property for a weekend, a week, or sometimes even longer. Additionally, FOCUS hosts several off-site opportunities, including adventure, service, and leadership programs. FOCUS offers a variety of different programs designed for students finishing grades 6-12. Summer programs begin in early June and run through late August.
