Afterschool Professionals Appreciation Week!
Afterschool Professionals Appreciation Week is a joint effort of community partners, afterschool programs, youth and child development workers and individuals who have committed to declaring the last full week of April each year as a time to recognize and appreciate those who work with youth during out-of-school hours. Join us for celebrations and display your appreciation to thank afterschool professionals who make a difference in the lives of young people. Get ideas and more from the National Afterschool Association here.

Know a teen that loves to work with children? Encourage them to apply to become a Play Captain.
Being a Play Captain is like being a ‘camp counselor.’ Teens are trained to take traditional games like hop-scotch and four square and add new twists or make them age-appropriate for children using a playful learning approach. Play Captains work in Philly’s neighborhoods on the Play Streets. Learn more here: http://www.playcaptains.com
