During the past year, providing safe, enriching and nurturing after-school spaces for K-12 students has been both increasingly challenging and increasingly necessary.
Challenging, because of health and safety limitations (including remote learning during portions of 2020) and increased needs for many families including hunger, housing, and the lack of affordable and sufficient child care.
Necessary, because all children and youth need safe spaces where caring adults can help them to reach their full potential. This has been especially true during the ongoing pandemic as daily stressors increased for all of us.
The week of April 19-23 is National Afterschool Professionals Week, in honor of the many women and men who work to provide safe spaces, academic tutoring, and inclusive communities for students in grades K-12 during the after-school hours.
