"With California’s historic $4 billion investment in the Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELO-P), we have an unprecedented opportunity to fortify these lifelines that boost academics, tackle hunger, and provide essential care, helping students and their families thrive – all at no cost to families. " We are happy that our "Family Guide to Afterschool for All" -codeveloped with Partnership for Children and Youth - was highlighted in this op-ed written by Michele Broadnax, MBA president and CEO of LA’s BEST in the Los Angeles Sentinel. What we know to be true is that access to afterschool services and programs is essential for student and family development. As we advocate for more dollars at the state level to make theses opportunities available, we must also ensure students and families are enrolled to utilize and optimize these free resources. https://lnkd.in/gjGBtPGp
