Call for Practices

Hello everyone. The Center for Youth Development and Policy Research at the 
Academy for Educational Development (AED) in Washington, D.C. is pleased to 
announce a national Call for Practices in afterschool programs beginning today 
and concluding July 7.   AED is looking for promising practices in any one of 
seven component areas:

-Community & Family Involvement
-Programming
-Management & Administration
-Staffing & Training
-Financing
-Research, Evaluation, & Knowledge Base
-Policy & Advocacy

AED is collecting practices as part of the Promising Practices in Afterschool 
(PPAS) System funded by the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation.  For more 
information, please visit www.afterschool.org and click on "Submitting 
Practices."  You may also send an email to PPAS@aed.org with any questions or 
call the AED Center for Youth Development and Policy Research at 202-884-8267.

We received many wonderful submissions earlier this year, and we now have over 
80 promising practices in the searchable database.  We invite all of you to 
take a look when you have a chance.

Thanks!

Regards,
