Get a Complimentary Program Assessment at our Evaluation Cabana
For the fifth year in a row, AIR is hosting an Evaluation Cabana where you can meet one-on-one with one of AIR’s evaluation experts to discuss program evaluation and assessment. If you have ever wondered if your program is too new to evaluate or if an outside evaluator is needed, be sure to sign up.
As we know, quality programming and evaluation is the result of intentional planning, sharing, and reflection. Come see us in the cabana to learn more about developing, implementing, evaluating, and improving your afterschool program.
Register for a complimentary 40-minute time slot on Thursday, April 30, in our poolside cabana at no additional cost (must be a registered conference attendee). Space is limited to six participants. Learn more about the Evaluation Cabana at BOOST and click here to register and reserve your time slot.

In Loving Memory of Mary Jo Ginty
|
|
|
On December 29, 2019, we lost a colleague, leader, mentor, friend, and giant. And it hurts. Mary Jo Ginty made a significant impact on all of us in so many ways, personally and professionally. Her passing is a momentous loss to everyone who knew her. Her contributions to the Expanded Learning field will be one of her greatest legacies. It is fair to say she taught us so many valuable lessons along the way.
Learn more about honoring Mary Jo's legacy here.
