What’s happening?
The executive branch is currently withholding tens of millions in federal funding meant for after-school and summer programs under the 21st CCLC initiative—about $119 per student nationwide, totaling over $118 million lost for the current school year.
Why it matters:
- Without this funding, local after-school sites may shut down this summer.
- Communities lose safe enrichment environments, and kids lose mentors, academic help, and guidance .
That’s a direct hit on opportunities and safety for hundreds of thousands of students.
