All children have opportunities to develop to their full potential.
Our community places a high value on them and provides them with safe, healthy environments that promote learning. For working parents and their employers, the issue of high quality after school care is important. Trident United Way's needs assessment documents the importance of the time period between after school and when the parents get home as critical in helping our children and youth. A lack of safe, productive and satisfactory activities outside of school can lead to damaging delinquent behavior. In Schools were awarding grants to develop after school programs.
