Each Child Care
Resource and Referral agency in Ohio has an Afterschool Specialist who
is committed to working with all persons and programs that have school
age children as part of their program. This translates to all 88
Ohio counties having access to the expertise these persons bring to the
table.
When we say “afterschool” we refer to anytime outside the
regular school day. Before/after school, weekend, and summer are
all times when children and youth need to be engaged in activities while
not in their parents care.
The Afterschool Specialist in each R & R is available to assist with areas such as:
-
Training – how to help school-agers with
academics, quality issues you face, or expansion of current program
-
Networking – what other afterschool
activities are happening in your community
-
Accreditation – what does it mean to be
accredited and what do you need to do
-
Quality – what is the generally
accepted measure of quality in afterschool programs
-
Resources – a variety of books, games,
materials, and other learning materials are available for you to use
to enhance your program
-
Start-up or expansion – how do you
start, what do you need to do
-
Licensing – what does it mean, what do
you have to do
-
Referrals – assist parents to identify
programs that are available to their children
