We've all heard the phrase "safety first." That applies to afterschool and summer learning programs, too. To learn, grow and thrive, youth need a space that is safe and promotes their well-being. Same goes for youth workers and program staff - we need to keep them safe, too.

DOMAIN 2: RELATIONSHIPS & INTERACTIONS

When programs create an environment that is truly welcoming for all - youth, families, staff, and visitors - and when relationships are deep and authentic, we're best poised to meet students' needs. Being intentional about our relationships and interactions will foster a safe, nurturing setting where youth can try new things, get extra support, and be inspired to be their best selves.

DOMAIN 3: YOUTH-CENTERED PROGRAM DESIGN

We know our programs aren't something we do "to" or "for" youth, but rather with youth. Add in a high-quality learning environment plus program activities that speak directly to students' needs and you've got the recipe for a program that really accelerates young people's academic, social, and emotional learning.

DOMAIN 4: LEADERSHIP & MANAGEMENT

An effective program starts with a strong foundation. It's easy to get caught up in meeting the day-to-day needs of youth and forget to look inward on a regular basis. When our administrative practices are solid, and our staff is well supported, our programs are better prepared to help students thrive.
