This collection of writing by national leaders in after-school policy and implementation seeks to enlighten providers about possibilities for expanding or starting new after-school programs. The chapters focus on how after-school programs can improve on youths’ abilities in six areas: science, technology, arts, entrepreneurship, global understanding and access to college. This is a quick and useful read for anyone in the after-school field, and even better for someone thinking about opening an after-school program. (856) 533-1600, http://www.caceafterschool.org.
