Why Afterschool Programs are Important?

Quality afterschool programs are proven to improve children’s academic and social skills, and to decrease involvement in criminal activities. In 2004, Montana’s afterschool system had the capacity to serve approximately 14% (7,430) of over 54,000 elementary school-aged children living in single working parent or two working parent households. In 2006, Montana’s afterschool system increased the capacity to just over 18% (8660) of elementary school-aged children with working parents.
