About this grant
This grant will support the After-School Corporation, which coordinates the New York Statewide Afterschool Network. In addition to continuing the network’s core work to advance afterschool in New York, it will complete a multiyear project to better connect the afterschool learning system with the wide range of public agencies that serve youth and families including public health, safety, and workforce development. The network seeks to align the overall youth-serving system in New York to: 1) develop more high quality afterschool opportunities; 2) improve service coordination; 3) bring together disparate funding streams; and 4) leverage best practices to better serve young people as they prepare for success in college, careers, and life.
