Introduction:	The After-School program began in 2009 to provide refugee youth a quality educational enhancment opportunity. The program meets monday-thursday during the school calander. The focus of the program is to provide assistance with homework, build math and reading skills, and help the students successfully intigrate into the American school system. SACC's after-school currently serves refugee youth who have been in the United States for 3 years or less, and encompasses grade levels kindergarden through fifth grade. In 2009 all the students in the program were refugees from Somalia. Throughout the years the program has expanded to include refugee youth from many different countries. This year the program has served refugee youth from Somalia, Sudan, Democratic Republic of Congo, Bhutan, and Nepal, with ages ranging from 7-13. While the programs primary mission is the continued education of the youth, we believe there must be a mixture of phyical activity and learning. We provide structured physical activity once a week, and provide a nutritious snack each day.
