Think Together’s Annual Lights on Afterschool Virtual Celebration Advocating for Afterschool and Expanded Learning Programs
Lights On Afterschool is a national campaign organized by the Afterschool Alliance to celebrate afterschool programs and their vital role in the lives of students, their families and our communities.
California has long supported afterschool and expanded learning programs, paving the way for universal afterschool and expanded learning programs for all students. This year we’re “Celebrating Bright Futures Ahead” thanks to California legislators maintaining existing budgets for afterschool and expanded learning programs despite a statewide deficit.
Save the date for our virtual event on Thursday, October 26, 2023. Join our newsletter or follow us on social for our month-long celebration with over 400+ of our school sites participating.
