AFTERSCHOOL
PROGRAMS

Afterschool programs (sometimes called OST or Out-of-School Time programs)
serve children and youth of all ages. These programs encompass a broad
range of focus areas including academic support, mentoring, positive youth
development, arts, sports and recreation, apprenticeships, workforce
development programs, and programs for opportunity youth (i.e., youth not
in schools or the workforce) and youth experiencing homelessness.

HOW TO START
AN AFTERSCHOOL
PROGRAM

Afterschool programs can help meet your community’s needs. Some are
academically-focused on building skills like reading, math, and language.
Others may highlight outdoor play, art, sports, or music. To set up an
afterschool program, consider where you will run it, what staff you’ll
need, and where you’ll find funding for supplies and food. Any program
that cares for young children may also have to comply with national and
local government guidelines.
