There are certain features of after-school programs which can promote and facilitate positive youth development. There are also activities which youth report as being emotionally and cognitively engaging. This hands-on collection of nine articles from The Prevention Researcher explores these features and provides practical examples of how they can be applied.

At the same time, it can be challenging to engage middle and high school-aged youth in after school programming. No matter how much effort goes into a program, if youth do not attend, then they cannot benefit from it. To address this need, this Pack contains a number of articles which explore how after-school programs can actively involve and engage youth, and work to eliminate barriers which keep some youth from participating.
