Contact:John Gregory 335-11189 ATTESTED April 20, 2004 JOHN SWEETEN,CLERK OF cc: John Gregory,CAO THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Antioch Unified AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR Mount Diablo Unified Pittsburg Unified West Contra Costa UnifiedAL� John Swett Unified BY ,r PUTY Martinez Unified Beyond the political and fiscal benefits of the countywide Collaborative there are many other pragmatic benefits to participating districts and schools, which include: • Sharing of best practices and effective strategies that are being used at different sites and in different districts. • Sharing of resources such as staff development, materials, and community assets [e.g., agencies, museums, etc. who can be utilized across multiple districts] • Political and economic negotiating clout. • Common evaluation across the districts that yields a countrywide report on the efficacy of the program and raises the profile and credibility of the work. • Connection to the larger system of school-linked services and integrated services countywide. • A long-term commitment by the Board of Supervisor to leverage funding and sustain "what works" in the county. • Foster youth development, leadership skills and appreciation of cultural and ethic diversity. The Afterschool 4 All Collaborative After School Program has been successful in bringing together six school districts that are operating comprehensive after school programs. However, in order to "strengthen, institutionalize and sustain" this work, it is necessary to build infrastructure, institute quality assurance/systems, leverage additional funding and build capital regarding the importance of out-of-school- time programs, a sustainable action plan must be designed and developed. At this time staffing for the Afterschool 4 All Collaborative After School Program has been primarily voluntary through the participating school districts and the County Administrator's Office. To bring the collaborative to a sustained level will require marketing, public relations and fund development, items which the Afterschool 4 All Collaborative members feel that is best handled by a contractor coordinator. Consideration of funding this position for approximately$70,000 is asked of the Board as it begins budget deliberation for fiscal year 2004- 2005 This update reviews the activities and accomplishments of the Afterschool 4 All Collaborative After School Program and provides information about the directions, projects and upcoming strategies.
