About this grant

This grant will support Cross & Joftus, LLC in its efforts to provide financial options to policymakers, education reform advocates, and program leaders seeking to implement reforms that focus on restructuring time and learning. This work is connected to the Mott-funded report, "A New Day for Learning". Deliverables will include: 1) a document on financing approaches and case studies for restructuring time and learning that will support communities to make better use of existing resources; and 2) technical assistance to statewide afterschool networks and others in utilizing these financial approaches. Written products will be shared broadly through electronic media and partnerships with organizations working to support similar efforts.
