The California AfterSchool Network provides leadership and links to state policy makers to support high-quality programs. It offers a collective voice to support policies, research, public awareness campaigns and innovative strategies. Networking partnerships are built to support opportunities for mutual learning so that California’s after-school programs can keep children safe, inspire learning, and help working families.

- Quality Self-Assessment Tool 2.0 Oct 2018
CAN and its many partners realized it was time to revisit the Self Assessment Tool so that it is more inclusive to the work that is currently happening in the field. So beginning in August 2017, we have started working on the QSAT 2.0. This tool will align even more closely with the Quality Standards, as well as addressing some items that may not have been as clearly defined in the Standards, such as Social Emotional Learning, Cultural Competencies, English Language Learners and Summer. Find the current version at the link above and look for the new version in the coming months.
