I like going to ASP because I get to play with my friends, I get almost all As, and I get more help.

CAN staff, interns, and volunteers partner with students to help them complete and comprehend their assigned homework each day

Homework

Children stretch on yoga mats

There are countless opportunities for students to participate in a huge range of additional activities, such as academic board games, science, math, language art, and other subjects, learn about their bodies & nutrition and more!

Enrichment

Two girls read Elephant & Piggy books

CAN's #1 goal in literacy is to help students develop a love for reading. When young people see themselves & others expressed in story, they are more likely to be self-motivated to keep reading and practice writing to share their own stories. 

Literacy

At every CAN location, students receive diverse, high-quality, nutritious food in our educational programs.

Nutrition

Girls have arms around each other

Interwoven throughout every program is a culture of role modeling mindfulness, resilience, and healthy interpersonal relationships. Students are given the language and tools they need to navigate the social world and better name and manage their emotions.

Social-Emotional Development
