Updated Resources from the Afterschool Investments Project


 

The Afterschool Investments Project (AIP), a service of the Child Care
Bureau, provides technical assistance to Child Care and Development Fund
(CCDF) grantees and other state and local leaders to support afterschool
efforts.  The Finance Project manages AIP and is pleased to announce we
have updated several resources on the project website: 
http://nccic.acf.hhs.gov/afterschool/. 

 

The resources are designed to assist policymakers, administrators, and
providers in strategic planning, building partnerships, and sustaining
efforts to support access to high quality school-age care.  The
resources allow users to quickly access key information on each state,
to compare information across states, and provide an overview of the
afterschool landscape and key trends across the country.  

State Afterschool Profiles provide a snapshot of the "state of
afterschool" in every state as well as an opportunity to compare
afterschool activities across the country. Profiles highlight key data
and descriptions of the afterschool landscape, which include a range of
out-of-school time programming that can occur before and after school,
on weekends, and during summer months. Profiles are searchable by state
or type of initiative --including professional development, financing,
and other topics - across states.  Updated profiles for all fifty states
and the District of Columbia are available at: 
http://nccic.acf.hhs.gov/afterschool/statep.html.

The National Profile provides a picture of afterschool programs across
all 50 states and the District of Columbia. It includes information
about promising state and local initiatives as well as information on
the largest federal funding sources. The National Profile can be found
at: http://nccic.acf.hhs.gov/afterschool/nationalprofile.html. 

State-by-State Comparison Tables highlight important characteristics
about the school-age population, including school age settings, provider
reimbursement rates, and other indicators of how the Child Care and
Development Fund (CCDF) supports afterschool across the states.  The
tables can be found at: 
http://nccic.acf.hhs.gov/afterschool/sbscomp.html.
