Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
AYS provides enriching programs for children outside of the school day. This ensures that children are supported both emotionally and academically, as AYS programs complement school day learning. This also provides working parents with peace of mind knowing that their children are safe and engaged during working hours when school is not in session.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
AYS works to accommodate the typical work schedule of parents. We also provide full-day programming during school breaks, including summer. AYS programs are structured to ensure that children get a mix of staff-led educational programming and time for free play and socialization.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
AYS employs individuals who receive on-going training in order to provide programming to over 3,000 children each year. AYS also works with school-day staff to align programming with school day learning.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
AYS has provided programs in central Indiana since 1980 and currently is the on-site before- and after-school provider at 42 schools. We will continue to work to develop outcome measurements that will show the benefits of AYS programs on children.
