[YL] Planning an after school program

[Jennifer Gaspar]

Greetings Linda,
I just received this message off the YouthLearn list
serve. I, too, am interested in the responses you
receive about how to start an afterschool program. I
see a definite need for it in my area but I don't know
what type of experience/ funding there is available
for programs. Please keep me informed as you receive
responses.

Thanks Linda
Best of luck with your project.
Jennifer Gaspar
