Do you see the need for greater access to high-quality afterschool programs in your city but have little or no funds to support the work? This webinar will explore ways cities can expand access by acting as a local afterschool intermediary, forming partnerships, acting as a convenor, and proving other supports for existing afterschool programs and staff. Join NLC, the US Department of Education, and city leaders to hear how you can replicate systems in use across the country to bring more opportunities to youth in your community.

This webinar will answer the following questions for city leaders:

  • What do high quality afterschool programs look like, and why is quality important?
  • What are afterschool intermediaries and how can small- to medium-sized cities join or lead these initiatives?
  • How can citywide youth master plans benefit cities and impact access to afterschool programs?
