Place-based Partnership Grantees

Place-based collaborative model

These collaboratives have two or more organizations that collectively serve the same group of youth throughout the school-year and during summer. Programming takes place in neighborhoods and school communities that lack sufficient access to high-quality out-of-school time programs.

Grantees

Each partnership serves an average of 50-150 elementary and/or middle school youth for at least four days per week after school and at least six weeks in the summer.
