Statewide Quality and Outcomes Assessment
Abstract
At their finest, out-of-school time (OST) programs are vibrant environments that nurture and promote creativity and innovation, in the activities and opportunities offered as well as in the personal connections and social environments that lead to positive effects for children and youth. Too often, these moments of brilliance are just that —short-term instances made possible by individual staff who move on to other jobs without institutionalizing what worked, leaving programs to scramble to sustain consistent funding to support staff time for both work with youth and administrative functions.
