AB 1113 (@AsmKevinMcCarty) just passed the Senate Appropriations Cmte! 🎉 Thank you, @Portantino, @SenBrianJones, @SenatorAshby, @SteveBradford, @SenatorSeyarto, @aishabbwahab, & @Scott_Wiener. We're 1 step closer to equitable #afterschool access for older kids + data collection!

We commend @CAgovernor and the CA legislature for protecting #ExpandedLearning programs in the finalized FY 23-24 budget and including COLAs for the educators and childcare providers who are essential to the success of ELO-P. Read our full statement: ca3advocacy.com/ca3-23-24-bu…

Sixth graders from low income families have spent approximately 4,000 fewer hours in expanded learning than their higher income peers. Looking forward to increasingly strategic, equitable investments in enrichment that ensure students are #ReadyForTheWorld.

Thank you @JoshHooverCA for your strong support & comments on #AB1113 to give older youth enriching afterschool experiences they want & deserve, ensure programs can recruit + retain quality staff by adding a COLA, & integrate expanded learning in the cradle-to-career system.

CA is continuing to reinvent our education system to prioritize the well-being of students & families.
✅ Free school meals for students
✅ A whole new grade: T-K
✅ More affordable childcare
✅ Expanded before, after, & summer school programs
✅ More teachers & counselors
We have made deep, transformative investments in California and our future that this budget will guide as we navigate economic uncertainty.
We’re keeping the state on solid fiscal footing to protect Californians and our progress.

There is power in partnering to support @afterschool4all. That’s why @CityofSantaAna is using ARPA funds to collaborate with CBOs. Together, they will expand access to afterschool programs to 200 families. How is your city partnering to support afterschool? #LightsOnAfterschool

Every student should have access to high-quality out-of-school time (OST) programs like after school enrichment & summer learning. ED's new #EngageEveryStudent Initiative can help your school use American Rescue Plan funds to support OST programs: ed.gov/ost
