A Collaborative Effort
Providing Out of School Time Programs in Philadelphia Public Schools
Abstract
Methodist Services provides a wide range of high quality programs that support children and families across Philadelphia. One of our areas of expertise has long been providing educational programs: early childhood education, private kindergarten, summer camp and out of school time. Through a partnership with PHMC’s (Public Health Management Corporation) 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) Grant and the City of Philadelphia’s Department of Human Services’ Out of School Time Project (DHS OST), Methodist Services has been able to enhance services offered in the community schools that house its state-licensed After School Care programs. The 21st CCLC grant supports out-of-school time (OST) programs designed to provide academic support for low-income youth who attend high- poverty, low-performing schools.
