Subjects such as science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), and healthy eating and physical activity (HEPA) are integrated into afterschool programs in response to community needs. Lights On Afterschool, held annually on the fourth Thursday of October (October 28th this year), is the perfect time to share your success and educate others about the value of afterschool and the important work that you do.
Showcase STEM or HEPA this year with the support of the following resources:
HARNESSING THE POWER OF EXPLANATION - TALKING WITH SCHOOLS AND FAMILIES ABOUT AFTERSCHOOL STEM
Eat Healthy and Get Moving. Incorporate HEPA into Your Program
