Abstract: Support for afterschool programs has grown over the past two decades. In addition to growing support, the "America After 3PM" 2025 national household survey finds that the demand for afterschool programs remains significant, with nearly 30 million children who are enrolled in an afterschool program or who would be if one were available to them. In the face of such high demand, many states have made progress to increase afterschool program enrollment, availability, and public support through state- and local-level investments, quality improvement systems, and ongoing advocacy and quality supports from local and statewide intermediary organizations, including statewide afterschool networks. This brief presents the leading states for afterschool in three distinct categories: (1) afterschool program participation; (2) afterschool accessibility; and (3) parent recognition. These categories reflect the broad array of state initiatives that support high-quality afterschool programming for youth. While efforts vary across states, this brief synthesizes actions that leading states have taken to build the afterschool field's infrastructure and increase the capacity of programs to provide high-quality services.
