Welcome to the Massachusetts Afterschool Partnership!

The Massachusetts Afterschool Partnership is dedicated to expanding quality afterschool, out-of-school time and extended learning opportunities statewide for school-age children, youth, families and communities.

Why Afterschool Matters

Afterschool, Out-of-School Time (OST) and extended learning opportunities inspire and support thousands of Massachusetts children, youth and families every day. From project-based learning to music and the arts to physical fitness and nutrition, OST programs address the needs of the whole child. Yet, only 20% of Massachusetts' 1.3 million school-age children and youth have access to afterschool and out-of-school time opportunities.
