Summary
From 1997 to 2002, Wallace supported collaborations that led to 57 schools opening their doors to programming for children from low-income communities during non-school hours. This evaluation of the effort's first year finds that the programs showed promise in engaging children and teens in constructive social, recreational, and academic activities. Programs encountered difficulties, however, in finding adequate space, transportation, and other resources.
