Make the After-School Transition Work for Youth and Staff

30-minute training + downloadable tip sheet and handout

The transition from the school day to after-school programming can be one of the most challenging parts of the day.

Children arrive with very different needs. Some are full of energy, some are exhausted, some need connection, and many are simply hungry.

When programs expect youth to jump straight into activities, the result is often chaos for both children and staff.

In this on-demand webinar, you’ll learn a simple framework for after-school transitions so youth can settle in, regulate, and engage more successfully in the afternoon.

What to Expect

In this short session, you'll learn how to:

  • Recognize the different needs children bring at the end of the school day
  • Use the Laps, Naps, Raps & Snacks framework to guide activity choices
  • Offer simple options that support movement, rest, connection, and fuel
  • Create a calmer transition for both youth and staff

Learn how small changes in program structure can make a big difference.
