About this grant

This grant will provide continued support to the After-School All-Stars program in Washington, D.C., including expanding its presence to additional sites over the next two years. The grantee’s mission is to provide comprehensive afterschool programs for at-risk middle school students to keep them safe and help them achieve in school and in life. As a result, the afterschool program will focus on a variety of areas such as tutoring, life skills, mentoring, and health and fitness. In addition, the Washington, D.C. chapter will serve as a pilot site for new and innovative national initiatives that will be disseminated to the afterschool education field.
