Join the effort to help children and youth succeed in Massachusetts!

According to the recent report by the Massachusetts Special Commission for After School and Out-of-School Time, only 20% of our children and youth in Massachusetts have access to afterschool and out-of-school time programs.  For our 1.3 million children here in the Commonwealth, we need to ensure that they have the opportunities they need to thrive, learn, grow and develop in a safe environment after school.  Please join our movement to support children and young people in the Commonwealth!

Our Mission

The Massachusetts Afterschool Partnership (MAP) is a statewide public-private partnership dedicated to improving quality and resources for afterschool, out-of-school time, summer and youth programs across the Commonwealth. MAP's goals include:

• Improve and increase resources for afterschool programs, including developing sustainable public-private revenue streams;
• Build a statewide network that will promote and nurture regional and local partnerships with a special emphasis on school-community partnerships;
• Promote high quality afterschool programs across the state.
