Like many cities, Toledo suffered from urban sprawl, leaving behind families with fewer opportunities for employment and resources. While many families still call Toledo home, parents often have to look for work outside of their neighborhood, which leads to children having limited options for the after-school hours before their parents return from work.

Evaluating Afterschool
When I joined After-School All-Stars (ASAS) in 2014, I represented the sole member of our research and evaluation department. It was a great opportunity to craft a vision, and one that I greeted with excitement, but there was definitely anxiety as well.
