Latest From TASC

Children throughout the Lower East Side celebrated Lights On Afterschool last Thursday, Oct. 18, showing their support for the programs that supervise and stimulate them each day in the hours before their parents can pick them up.

The yellow lights shining at the top of the Empire State Building on October 18, supported Lights On Afterschool, the only national rally to call attention to the importance of after-school programs, led by the Afterschool Alliance.

In collaboration with the Queens Library Community Library staff and BOOST Activity Assistants, and generous support from The Wallace Foundation, TASC created The BOOST Quick Guide to share the promising after-school activities that community libraries undertook as demonstration projects.
