The After-School Corporation is a New York-based national nonprofit dedicated to bringing all kids expanded learning opportunities that support, educate and inspire them. We were founded in 1998 through a challenge grant from the Open Society Institute. We are governed by an elected Board of Directors.
Our founder and president, Lucy N. Friedman, is a member of the Board of Directors. She is also a founding board member of the Afterschool Alliance and the Coalition for Science Afterschool.
We collaborate with numerous public and private partners across the state and nation to change public policy, advocate for fair funding and build schools and systems that help all young people have access to the experiences beyond the school day all families want for their kids. In New York City, we collaborate with the Department of Youth and Community Development and the Department of Education to expand and strengthen the nation's largest municipally-funded after-school system and support high school apprenticeships and a network of ExpandED Schools and after-school programs.
We work with Baltimore City Public Schools and the Family League of Baltimore City to implement ExpandED Schools in Baltimore.
We work with the the Partnership for Youth Development in New Orleans to implement ExpandED Schools in New Orleans.
TASC is the founding partner and fiscal agent of The Collaborative for Building After-School Systems and the fiscal agent for the New York State Afterschool Network.
