Our Board members are volunteers who provide outstanding support and guidance to New Jersey After 3. They have seen first hand the positive impact that high quality, structured afterschool programs have on kids.
There are many ways to get involved. Reach out to our partner afterschool providers and offer your help. Be vocal about expanding afterschool opportunities in your school district. Contact your legislators to get them on board. Make a donation to help match state dollars to expand afterschool programs.
You will help our children stay in school, keep safe, grow and flourish as students and citizens.
