Partnership for After School Education (PASE)

Every day in New York City, over 500,000 young people in low-income communities are provided safe and enriching environments in afterschool programs run by community-based agencies.

As the largest network of afterschool programs in the country with over 1,200 participating agencies, the Partnership for After School Education (PASE) helps build stronger afterschool programs, develop successful young people and create more resilient communities.

Enabling a critical exchange of resources and ideas among agencies, educators and other partners, PASE is a leading provider of professional development for afterschool staff. In its programs and initiatives, PASE promotes best practices in afterschool programs and functions as a strong voice for youth.
