A4. The funding challenge is a difficult one, although several federal funding streams that can support #afterschool and #summerlearning programs do have set asides or priority for rural applicants. See funding database here: afterschoolalliance.org/fundingData.cfm #AA3PM #AfterschoolWorks

I spent the last 30 mins reading and liking so many tweets in the #AA3PM tweetchat. While the data reveal troubling inequities, folks are sharing so many fantastic examples of programs stepping up to meet the challenges in rural communities. Join us at #AA3PM until 3PM!

So great to see the focus on the importance of relationships in afterschool and summer! #AA3PM finds that parents value those relationships and the opportunity to build social and emotional skills that can keep relationships strong.
