About this grant
This grant will continue to support the Collaborative Communications Group to provide targeted communications, policy, and research support to the statewide afterschool networks and the afterschool field as part of the Expanded Learning and Afterschool Project.

As part of the expanded learning and afterschool project, this grant will continue to support the development of new communications strategies and policy approaches to advance the afterschool field.
