Goal: To provide out of school time opportunities that support the missed learning opportunities experienced by children and their need for social and emotional development in Oakland County as result of COVID-19. Rationale: The social and emotional toll of the pandemic has impacted all children. Using dollars to support the out of school time space —a space whose strength is the development of youth's social and emotional skills —allows dollars to be most impactful. This, coupled with supporting those programs in the development of or increased access to age -appropriate exposure, inquiry -based, and play -based learning spaces allows youth to reap the benefits of the social emotional learning core to strong out of school time programs, while creating learning experiences to support those missed during the pandemic. This model is in alignment with the 4 C's of 21't Century learnina (Creativity, Collaboration, Critical Thinking, and Communication), skills that research says regardless of one's school quality, will better prepare them for college and career. These skills are foundational to experiential and inquiry -based learning and are well -aligned with the goals df out of school time programing. It is also consistent with the Department of Education's recommendations. Focus: Grants could cover: • Equipment & Materials Personnel investments for development and programmatic shifts Transportation & Food Overview: Provide grant dollars to offer: Onsite programming at schools This would allow students to receive after school programing without having to worry about transportation to and from an after -school provider. Programming could serve as enrichment, extended learning and/or support health and wellness. Offsite with out of school time providers Offsite providers can use grant dollars to improve programming through equipment & materials investments and/or personnel training and/or the addition of programming. Offsite non-traditional learning providers High -traffic spaces where community gather can invest in creating spaces where experiential, inquiry, and play -based learning can happen. Programming Should: Support existing programs in expanding seat offerings and/or • Add social -emotional learning (SEL) best practices and/or play -based, inquiry -based, and/or experiential learning (STEAM + Literacy) and to their offerings and infrastructure. This can be done through: o Intentional investments (equipment not capital expenditures) in existing spaces (recreation centers, libraries, community hubs, etc.) o Training for program staff on best practices for out of school time providers. • Be grounded in best practices, or be using grant dollars to implement best practices, as it relates to supportive youth development in out of school time spaces (i.e. Weikart's ovramid of oroRram auality) The Department of Education recommendations will also be considered. Stratification: • Age, location, and variety can be elements by which the portfolio is balanced. Scale can be used to stratify the grant amounts. This approach to award grants has been working well for United Way Considerations: • Eligible Organizations: Potential eligible organizations could include school districts and non- profit organizations. Potentially worth considering are city parks, rec centers, and libraries, that offer youth programming. Funding complexities need to be considered with these options. • Discover Your Spark could be leveraged to help promote programming opportunities • Transportation and food need to be considered when extending the school day or time of day youth are at out of school time providers. Specifically applicants would have to explain how they intend to address these needs and advice could be given to ensure that federal program(s) are utilized. • Sustainability for onsite programing at schools needs to be considered in the development of the grant. 6 Leveraging existing opportunities cars be a decision/award factor.
