LEAPS Program
LEAPS (Leaning and Enrichment Afterschool Program Supports) Program Registration
What is the Leaning and Enrichment Afterschool Program Supports (LEAPS)?
Children who participate in quality after-school programs have improved school attendance, grades, and work habits; are less likely to repeat a grade and more likely to graduate; have higher school attendance and academic achievement; gain social skills, build their confidence, learn to think critically; and have better relationships with other students. Additional information about the importance and benefits of quality after-school programs can be found at Attendance Works and the National Conference of State Legislatures.
The purpose of the LEAPS initiative is to support community-based after-school programs that:
- Provide academic support and enrichment opportunities that will assist students in meeting academic and personal goals, as well as expose youth to future learning and life opportunities.
- Prioritize students’ social-emotional wellness and increase opportunities to mitigate the impacts from COVID-19, as well as expand students’ access to social and emotional support services. Please see the Afterschool Alliance for more information.
- Expand students’ community and family engagement and programs that support mentorship, employment, and life skills training.
