STEM Transitions, Handoffs, and Coordination – Brokering Youth Pathways: A Toolkit for Connecting Youth to Future Opportunity

  • Brokering Youth Pathways: A Toolkit for Connecting Youth to Future Opportunity from the Hive Research Network. This toolkit shares ways in which various out-of-school educators and professionals have approached the challenge of brokering. We provide a framework, practice briefs, and reports that focus on a particular issue or challenge and provide concrete examples, as well as illustrate how our partners worked through designing new brokering routines in partnership with our research team.

AFTERSCHOOL IN SOUTH DAKOTA

Afterschool is a lifeline that keeps youth safe, helps kids learn and grow, and provides parents the ability to work without worry. While South Dakota is home to more than 300 afterschool programs, the demand for programs exceeds available spaces. In fact, 1 in 3 South Dakota children (34 percent) who are not in an afterschool program would be enrolled if it were available. That’s more than 42,000 children who are missing out on opportunities to participate in programming that supports their development academically, socially and economically.
