21st Century Community Learning Centers

The 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) Grant Program's focus is to provide expanded academic enrichment opportunities for children attending low-performing schools.  Tutorial services and academic enrichment activities are designed to help students meet local and state academic standards in subjects such as reading and math.  In addition, 21st CCLC programs provide youth development activities, drug and violence prevention programs, technology education programs, art, music and recreation programs, counseling and character education to enhance the academic component of the program. 

Michigan will be receiving additional 21st CCLC federal funds for the 2011 federal fiscal year.  However, these funds will not be enough to run a competition for the 2011-2012 school year.  All funds will be allocated to existing grants that will be in continuation grant years three, four, and five.  The next anticipated grant competition for Michigan programs will be offered in January of 2012 contingent on continuation of federal allocation.

Research and Evaluation: 

In Michigan, the state evaluation is being conducted by Michigan State University's Community Evaluation and Research Center (CERC).  Click here to link to the Michigan State University 21st CCLC Evaluation Page. 

In addition The David P. Weikart Center for Youth Program Quality  has been awarded a grant to provide comprehensive technical assistance to grantees to implement and maintain high quality programs.  Program quality assessment is conducted annually using the Youth Program Quality Assessment tool which correlates with the Model Standards for Out-of-School Time/After-School Programs in Michigan.   In 2009, the Technical Assistance and Coaching Supports Services (TACSS) project began, and deepens and builds on the partnership between MDE and The David P. Weikart Center for Youth Program Quality.  Click here to link to the Center's 21st CCLC TACSS Page.
