Partnership for Children and Youth
Partnership for Children & Youth (PCY) believes all children need opportunities to learn beyond the school day and year to build skills and relationships, expand their horizons, access social capital, and discover their passions. PCY improves learning opportunities and conditions for youth by increasing access and quality of expanded learning programs in California: from the implementation of the 2006 landmark afterschool measure Prop. 49, to the unprecedented $4 billion investment in expanded learning in 2022. Our policy and practice experts work both in the field and in the state capitol to incubate new ideas, build capacity and coalitions, and change systems.
