The ultimate vision of this endeavor is to establish a community-wide initiative to support the delivery of non-school hour services so that every child in need will have access to a quality program. The Southwest Pennsylvania Afterschool Resource Collaboration (SPARC) website offers information about over 1,500
afterschool programs in schools, churches, recreation and community
centers throughout SW PA.
Programs offering arts and culture, career and workforce preparation,
personal development, educational and academic support, and recreation
and fitness are all included. The website is easy to search and
includes mapping, directions and public transportation features so you
can find the program nearest you.
