About this grant
This grant will support the Nebraska Children and Families Foundation, which coordinates the Nebraska Statewide Afterschool Network, to continue development of policy, partnerships, and resources to benefit youth in afterschool programs. Specific initiatives will include: 1) create a high-level advisory group of young business leaders to increase supportive partnerships; 2) develop, adopt, and promote voluntary expanded learning quality standards; 3) launch the Expanded Learning Opportunities Design Center to serve as a hub for strategic partnerships and projects to support rural programs; and 4) support the development and distribution of the new afterschool program content in collaboration with the Foundation’s thematic partners.
