SCHOOL'S OUT WASHINGTON

For over 30 years, sowa has been supporting an equitable ecosystem of expanded learning programs for washington's youth by helping after-school, summer, and child care programs become more robust and accessible. In addition to our grant making and professional learning programs, sowa advocates for the youth development sector, convenes community advocates and system leaders to advance collective impact, and showcases the data and stories from youth program providers, highlighting the strengths and needs of washington's expanded learning programs and young people, ages 5 to 24. Our efforts benefit communities throughout the state by prioritizing youth most impacted by systemic inequity.
