ASAP's After School Provider Network

One of the primary objectives of ASAP is to select local organizations that have the talent and expertise required to operate and manage quality after school programs. The providers are chosen by an objective RFP process as funding opportunities for expansion occur. ASAP's after school provider network manages the daily operations of the ASAP-funded after school programs and are supported by strategic technical assistance and professional development services provided by ARCHS and St. Louis for Kids. ARCHS and St. Louis for Kids annually provide thousands of hours of on-site support to help ensure specific ASAP goals and measures are met, and to share best practices and ideas among the programs. The provdiers must adhere to very detailed scopes of work as part of their ASAP performance-based operating contracts.

Central Catholic Academy
