The America After 3PM data is here! 🚀📊

Almost every young person in an afterschool program today is engaging with Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). Take a look at how much access has grown:

📈 92% of parents with a child in an afterschool program report that they have STEM learning opportunities.
🙌 That is a massive jump up from 69% in 2014!
💡 Even better: Kids of all income levels in afterschool have the same level of access to STEM.
