| Jed Schwendiman and Jennifer Fager |
| This booklet offers a brief overview of the research on after-school programs. It examines ideas for implementing a program using these research-based indicators and profiles several sites (including contact information) in the Northwest currently having success with their work in after-school programs. This resource also discusses the benefits of after-school programs for students, schools, and communities; implementation ideas; potential pitfalls new programs will want to avoid; and future trends in this program area. The appendixes offer helpful Web sites and selected resources for planning after-school programs.
