The Value of Out-of-School Time Programs provides an overview of the rationale for publicly funding OST programs, outlines a model for linking different categories of OST programs to likely outcomes, and suggests implications and recommendations for policymakers, funders, OST program leaders and researchers. This report, commissioned by The Wallace Foundation, offers key insights for providers, policymakers and funders. Key topics include how we can measure effectiveness of programs, depending on the program’s goals for outcomes; the connection between attendance and student outcomes, and how providers can use this to their advantage; and the role of policymakers and funders in prioritizing funding for programs designed to address outcomes most crucial to the communities they serve.
