National Standards for Out of School Time Released

In alignment with the National Physical Activity Plan and its implementation initiative, Make the Move, new National Standards for Out-of-School Time have been adopted by the National Afterschool Association. 

The standards provide evidence-based best practices that support the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 2008 guidelines for physical activity in the afterschool setting. The new standards address both healthy eating and physical activity and address content and quality, staff training, curriculum, social support, program support and environmental support.
