Community Partnerships

The 21st CCLC program sought to collaborate with a wide range of partners to implement the program. The Federal Way School District served as the major partner since the start of the grant, and provided office space for Site Coordinators, space for indoor and outdoor program activities, transportation, access to student records, meeting time, access to technology for staff and students, and other services.

Community partners were organizations or individuals other than the grantee, school, or school district, that provided any in-kind or cash contribution that supported the objectives of the program, as detailed in the tables below. Each site had 22 different partnerships over the five years of the grant. They provided a range of supports, including staff and interns, materials, activities, and more. (Additional data available)
