Save the date for the 25th Annual Lights On Afterschool on October 24, 2024!

Lights On Afterschool 2023 was a success! The nationwide event celebrated afterschool programs and their important role in the lives of children, families, and communities. It draws attention to the many ways afterschool programs support students by offering them opportunities to explore interests and build new skills.

Despite the uncertainty and challenges, afterschool programs have risen to the moment to support youth, and are critical supports to help youth recover from this challenging time and address their academic, social, and emotional needs. GSAN has created a toolkit for you to use for your celebration using the hashtags #LightsOnAfterschool and #GaLightsOn. You can also use the hashtag #ThisIsAfterschool to raise awareness of the wide variety of programming offered by afterschool programs.
