Power of 3:00 Afterschool Day of Action

Power of 3:00 Afterschool Day of Action (March 25, 2025)

Join supporters of afterschool, summer, and expanded learning programs to uplift the need to increase access to high-quality afterschool programs. Legislators will be at the State Capitol in Albany to negotiate which programs to fund in the state budget.

Last year’s budget included increased funding to help expand afterschool access; however, significant demand for afterschool in New York still remains. We need your voice to show them that afterschool cannot be an afterthought in the FY 2025-2026 budget.

The NYS Network for Youth Success’ Power of 3:00 Afterschool Day of Action is an opportunity for afterschool advocates, including afterschool professionals and families, to make the case for afterschool.
