AfterSchool PRO brings together resources for the afterschool and out-of-school time professional, inclusively and independently — and all online. Relevant links and sources for the afterschool professional community can be accessed through this easy entry point: AfterSchoolPRO.net.

This website is designed to serve as an easy-to-access comprehensive resource for you.

We have been working with dozens of organizations, hundreds of workshop leaders, hundreds of product and service providers, and thousands of afterschool professionals for eight years. We've learned that there are many questions but often, not enough time to find the answers.

It is a challenge to get information - whether you're looking for an organization or for a specific idea or item. There are hundreds of outstanding websites and working with search engines to narrow down almost five million options takes a lot of time. For current information, there are dozens of issue-oriented newsletters; again, too many for most of us to scan through.

The solution: AfterSchool PRO can work for you by accumulating, consolidating, listing, linking, and sorting the resources and information. The website will continue to grow in content and value — through our efforts and yours. We value the concept 'working together'. There is extraordinary resource material available and we want to make it easy for you to locate, consider, and apply. Your input and additions will be key to the accumulation of valuable information to be offered in a readily accessible way.

Throughout the website there are invitations to work together to make additions, corrections, or provide feedback. Please take advantage of those email links. If you would like to send a note to me directly to talk further about AfterSchool PRO, use talk@AfterSchoolPRO.net.

Thank you for visiting our site and for reading about AfterSchool PRO.

Looking forward to working together —
