SUMMARY:How Programs Are Leveraging ESSER Funds to Support Afterschool and Summer Learning
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the next Engage Every Student webinar on February 22\, 2024\, for a presentation on the recently released report “Investments in Student Recovery: A Review of School Districts’ Use of American Rescue Plan Funding to Support Afterschool and Summer Opportunities.” In late January 2025\, school districts and states will face the liquidation deadline for more than $120 billion America Rescue Plan ESSER III funds. How have these funds been used to date in support of comprehensive afterschool and summer enrichment programs? How have school-community partnerships been leveraged to support students when school is out? What opportunities persist to build partnerships\, maximize remaining funds\, and ensure afterschool and summer programs can engage every student once the funding deadline passes? \nThe report digs into these questions and more! It finds that eight in 10 districts invested in afterschool and summer programs — representing more than $5.4 billion. Following an overview of the report\, participants will learn how various school districts are leveraging ESSER funds to support students through afterschool and summer learning programs.

SUMMARY:Using Federal Funds for Summer Learning and Afterschool: A New Guide for Providers\, School Districts\, and Intermediaries
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is intended for all OST stakeholders – program leaders\, school district leadership\, state officials\, and local government leaders. \nHigh-quality summer and afterschool learning programs (“out-of-school time” or OST programs) play an important role in the lives of our nation’s young people. In the wake of the pandemic\, educators are placing greater emphasis on them as a means for learning recovery and to promote well-being\, aided by new federal funding through the American Rescue Plan Act. \nAt the same time\, district leaders and out-of-school time providers have lacked a comprehensive guide about which of the several federal funding streams can be used to support summer and afterschool – not only to fund direct program costs\, but also for planning and the infrastructure needed to deliver high-quality programs over the longer term. \nTo meet this need\, The Wallace Foundation will hold a webinar to share a new\, free resource developed by EducationCounsel: Using Federal Funds for Summer Learning and Afterschool: A New Guide for Providers\, School Districts\, and Intermediaries. \nThe webinar will feature: \n\nShital Shah\, Senior Advisor for Strategic Partnerships at the U.S. Department of Education;\nSean Worley\, author of the new resource and Policy Advisor at EducationCounsel;\nBarbara Couto Sipe\, President and CEO of NextUp RVA;\nand perspectives from district and city leaders on funding summer learning and afterschool.

SUMMARY:Supporting Out-of-School Time Through the American Rescue Plan Act
DESCRIPTION:In recognition of the crucial role that child care plays in supporting children\, families\, businesses\, and the economy as a whole\, the American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act includes funding through the Office of Child Care (OCC) for states\, territories\, and Tribes to stabilize the child care market. Through the U.S. Department of Education (ED)\, the American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund provides funds to states and school districts to help safely reopen and sustain the safe operation of schools and to address the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the Nation’s students. Supporting out-of-school time (OST) programming is a priority for both funding streams. \nDuring this webinar\, hosted by the National Center on Afterschool and Summer Enrichment (NCASE)\, along with speakers from OCC\, ED\, and the Afterschool Alliance\, you will be able to do the following: \n\nLearn how ARP Act funds from ED and OCC can support OST providers.\nGain an understanding from the Afterschool Alliance on the ways these funds are affecting the OST field and the role that OST intermediaries\, such as state afterschool networks\, play in supporting providers.\nExplore resources designed to support Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) lead agencies\, OST program providers\, and technical assistance (TA) providers with the ARP Act funding opportunities.

SUMMARY:Tapping into ARP State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds to Support Afterschool and Summer Learning
DESCRIPTION:In addition to education and child care funds\, the American Rescue Plan that became law in March 2021 provides $350 billion for eligible state\, local\, territorial\, and Tribal governments to respond to the COVID-19 emergency and bring back jobs. Under the jurisdiction of the US Department of the Treasury\, the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds provide a substantial infusion of resources to help turn the tide on the pandemic\, address its economic fallout and lay the foundation for a strong and equitable recovery. \nRecent guidance on these Recovery Funds makes clear that allowable uses include addressing educational disparities such as “evidence-based educational services and practices to address the academic needs of students\, including tutoring\, summer\, afterschool\, and other extended learning and enrichment programs; and evidence-based practices to address the social\, emotional\, and mental health needs of students…” This webinar will walk through the funding opportunities at the state and local level as well as provide examples of how the funds are being used to support enrichment and learning opportunities for young people. \nFacilitator \n\nErik Peterson\, Afterschool Alliance\n\nPresenters \n\nGislene Tasayco.

SUMMARY:School-Age Child Care Opportunities for Afterschool and Summer
DESCRIPTION:For many\, the COVID-19 pandemic has exposed both the critical importance of child care and the glaring inequities in the child care system related to access\, supply\, affordability\, and quality. Perhaps more than ever\, there is an opportunity to support working parents’ care needs across the age continuum. \nThe American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) passed in March of 2021 provided close to $40 billion for child care programs\, creating the opportunity to expand opportunities for access to high-quality care and more adequately meet program operational needs\, among others. \nIn this webinar\, we discuss the importance of directing some of these essential new child care funds to school-age care\, including afterschool and summer programs\, and outline information for providers on how the funds might support their work and ability to serve youth and families equitably. \nSpeakers \n\nAlycia Hardy\, Policy Analyst\, Center for Law and Social Policy (CLASP)\nTiffany Ferrette\, Policy Analyst\, Center for Law and Social Policy (CLASP)\nElena Rocha\, Senior Director\, Youth Development Partnerships and Policy\, YMCA of the USA\nGloria Hampton\, Director of School-Age Services\, Unleashing Potential\nJillian Luchner\, Policy Manager\, Afterschool Alliance

SUMMARY:American Rescue Plan: How to Access Funds for Afterschool & Summer
DESCRIPTION:Education funding provided by the American Rescue Plan presents a tremendous opportunity to offer young people the quality afterschool and summer programs that are so desperately needed. But\, with this tremendous opportunity also comes responsibility. Each of us in the afterschool field has a role to play to help ensure that funding is thoughtfully used to expand the availability of high-quality afterschool and summer programs\, address barriers to participation\, and fill in gaps in equity and access. \nThis “must join” session will provide an overview of the funding opportunity and provide tools that local communities can use to help ensure that they realize the potential of the American Rescue Plan funding to bring more afterschool and summer opportunities to life – and help all children re-engage\, re-connect\, and recover. \nLook out for continuing webinars on the American Rescue Plan (ARP) and the opportunities and implications for afterschool and summer learning programs.
