It examines summer learning and best practices for different types of after-school programs by drawing on the experiences of researchers, program staff, and youth participants. It also presents case studies of five specialized programs and discusses their strengths, limitations, and challenges. In addition, the brief offers recommendations drawn from across the two volumes for how researchers, policy makers, and practitioners can move the field forward and maximize the potential of after-school time and programs to promote positive youth development for children and adolescents. \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eFeatured case studies of specialized after-school programs include: \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRichmond, Virginia’s ROSMY.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Clubhouse: Where Technology Meets Imagination.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Young Women Leaders Program (YWLP).\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhatever It Takes (WIT) Program.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUTEC of Lowell, Massachusetts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eAfter-School Programs to Promote Positive Youth Development, Volume 2\u003c\/i\u003e, is a must-have resource for policy makers and related professionals, graduate students, and researchers in child and school psychology, family studies, public health, social work, law\/criminal justice, and sociology. \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2017-07-18\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319591407\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-59141-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 73\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47401577185420,"sku":"9783319591407","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319591407.jpg?v=1775794766","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783319591407","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
