PASA connects schools, community organizations, and city partners to turn Providence into a citywide campus where free impactful after school and summer programs help youth in 6th -12 grade learn, grow, and thrive. This vibrant ecosystem helps close learning and enrichment gaps, ensuring every young person has the chance to explore their interests, build new skills, and step confidently into their future.
PASA mobilizes the people, programs, and support systems that support high quality out-of-school time learning experiences ensuring:
- Engaging, hands-on learning led by trusted community partners, educators, and artists;
- Safe, reliable transportation to and from programs, including field-based learning sites, and home again;
- Ongoing training and coaching for youth-serving professionals; and,
- A shared standard of program quality to ensure every experience helps youth grow.
