Where Afterschool and Summer Programs Stand in the Minds of Voters

Join the February OST Impact Group Monthly Field Convening to hear new findings from bipartisan public opinion research examining voters’ views on afterschool and summer programs.

Speakers from Lake Research Partners and New Bridge Strategy will examine results of their recent poll exploring public for afterschool and summer programs. The December 2024 poll reached 1,000 registered voters, with an oversample of Black, Latinx, Asian American and Pacific Islander, and Indigenous registered voters. Questions focused on how voters feel about afterschool and summer programs, the level of support for public funding of programs, and the role that voters see programs playing in the lives of children, families, and communities. Based on poll findings, speakers will also offer recommendations for the field and insights into the supports and offerings that resonate more strongly with different audiences.
