Our Partners


NAZA-Funded Partners

NAZA-funded partners oversee programming at afterschool sites. They work with NAZA to increase their capacity to create, design, and evaluate quality learning experiences for youth. NAZA-funded organizations adhere to common standards for program quality, data tracking, and improvement; and also participate in NAZA's professional development.

Contracts are awarded to youth-serving organizations on a competitive basis. In addition, through a partnership with Metro Nashville Public Schools (MNPS), NAZA-funded partners access programs space, meals and snacks, transportation, and student data to inform programming.



Affiliated Partners

In an effort to scale up the number of high-quality learning opportunities available for youth in Nashville, NAZA offers a second partnership tier called Affiliated Partners. These partners receive in-kind access to professional development, program evaluation tools, data sharing, and other resources. They do not, however, receive program funding through NAZA.
